Physik Instrumente’s A-523 is an air-bearing Z tip/tilt stage with direct drive. It is built as a parallel-kinematic multi-axis system and can be employed for Z and tip/tilt motion. This stage provides ultra-precision in miniature format. Integrating the noncontact elements leads to a frictionless motion platform that offers the best quality, performance, and lifetime.

When ordering the A-523 with the A-81× or A-82× series controller, PI performs the configuration and cabling of the Z stage with applied servo tuning optimization and under applied load. Users receive a complete andreadily usable positioning system.
Features:
Travel range in Z to ±2.5 mm
Load capacity to 8 kg
Rotation range in θX, θY, to ±1°
Overall height 60 mm
Platform diameter 250 mm
Accessories and Options
Built-in vacuum clamping mechanism
Air filter sets
Application Fields
The Z tip/tilt stage is best suited for high-accuracy applications, such as fiber positioning, wafer inspection, flat screen inspection, optics positioning, maskless lithography, and ultra-LED manufacturing. The non-contact design is best suited for cleanroom applications.
