Reference-class linear drive
Combines high precision, high forces, and high dynamics. Versions available for vacuum environments to 10-9 hPa.
High-quality components
Ball screw for smooth feed. Nonrotating tip for uniform motion prevents wobble, torque, and wear at the point of contact. Incl. flat and spherical tip for decoupling forces. Noncontact limit switches protect the mechanics. A direction-sensing reference switch supports automation applications. Position-controlled variants with differential encoder driver in the connector for safe signal transfer over distances up to 10 m.

At PI, technical data is specified at 22 ±3 °C. Unless otherwise stated, the values are for unloaded conditions. Some properties are interdependent. The designation "typ." indicates a statistical average for a property; it does not indicate a guaranteed value for every product supplied. During the final inspection of a product, only selected properties are analyzed, not all. Please note that some product characteristics may deteriorate with increasing operating time.
