High Speed Piezo Linear Stage, 48 mm Travel, Direct Encoder, Integrated Controller

The Super Agilis™ CONEX-SAG-LS48P is a piezo motor linear stage integrated with a closed-loop piezo motor controller/driver that provides 48 mm travel and up to 10 mm/sec speed. The compact linear stage has a built-in direct read linear encoder enabling high position repeatability, for sample positioning, as an optics inserter, for focusing, etc. The innovation in this encoder technology allows the footprint to be maintained while delivering sub-micron bi-directional repeatability.

The CONEX-SAG-P controller's closed-loop algorithm combined with the direct read linear encoder, provides a system bi-directional repeatability of 25 nm. For stability in-position, the user can adjust the dead band parameter that stops dithering when the stage is within a set position tolerance.

The CONEX-SAG-LS48P is a very compact and cost-effective single axis motion controller delivered already pre-configured for the stage. The controller is accessible via USB, with options for other serial connections (available as custom/special), from an easy-to-use GUI or proprietary solutions using an extensive command set. RS232 connectivity is standard starting with products manufactured in September 2025 and later. A CONEX-SAG-RS232 Cable (sold separately) will be required to connect with the RS232 port.

With MIM of 25 nm this stage is perfect fit for high precision applications also needing high speed. And it is easy to stack stages into a XY configuration without requiring an adapter.

To power the stage a CONEX-PS power supply is needed.
