Valencia, CA -- A new series of closed loop linear steppers is now available from H2W Technologies. These low cost linear stepper motor stages with an integral linear encoder features high resolution to .00004 in. (1micron), repeatability to .0004 in/ft (.033mm/m), and accuracy to .001 in/ft. (.0833 mm/m). Capable of speeds to 118 in/sec (3 m/s) and acceleration up to 5 G’s the linear stepper stages are ideal for: assembly, sampling, and inspection operations, robotics, pick-and-place, testing, medical lab, and optical applications.

This new series of linear stepper stages is available in travel lengths to 144 inches (3.6 m) and forces of 6 lbs. (27 N), 10 Lbs. (45 N), and 20 lbs. (89 N). When installed as a system which includes a motion control package from H2W Technologies the performance is equal to a 2-phase, zero backlash, brushless motor in speed, acceleration, and smoothness.
