Thorlabs DDS600 linear stage with 600mm travel

AI Overview

+4

The Thorlabs DDS600 is a 600 mm travel, low-profile, direct-drive linear translation stage designed for applications requiring high speeds and precision positioning. It features a direct-drive brushless servo motor, integrated linear optical encoders for 100 nm resolution, and a lightweight aluminum construction. The DDS600 is ideal for tasks like automated alignment, surface inspection, and mapping due to its high speed (up to 300 mm/s), high repeatability (0.25 µm), and lack of backlash.
