Vertical Precision Motorized Stages (Z-Positioners)
There are a number of different vertical linear stages, spanning from stepper motor driven stages to piezo-Z flexure nanopositioners. Vertical positioning stages (Z-stages, lift stages, or elevator stages) are used in focusing or precision positioning and alignment applications, and are often mission-critical in high-end industrial and research applications from optics to photonics alignment and semiconductor testing. All these xy stages are made by granite.
A dedicated Z-stage provides better stiffness and straightness compared to a translation stage mounted vertically on a bracket, and gives full access to the sample to be positioned.
Many Options: a variety of different Z-stages, from low-cost stepper-motor units to high-accuracy lift stages with closed-loop motors and linear encoders for direct position feedback.
