Categories Related to XYZ Vacuum Stages
An XYZ vacuum stage is a precision platform capable of fine movement in three dimensions (X, Y, and Z axes). Equipped with micrometers for precise adjustments down to 0.01 mm, it features multiple screw holes for attaching optical components and can include a magnet for secure placement on optical tables.
XYZ vacuum stages are versatile tools for accurately positioning sample holders, heating mechanisms, and optical elements in research and industrial applications. They are particularly useful in laser systems for adjusting mirrors and lenses within the optical path.
These stages operate on different guiding systems for movement:
Key features include:
Positioning methods vary from manual adjustments observed through cameras to fully automated systems utilizing visual sensors for enhanced accuracy and efficiency. Applications include semiconductor exposure processes and screen printing, where precise positioning is critical.
