 Offer Profile  
Zaber's extensive line of computer controlled motorized linear slides, miniature linear actuators, motorized rotary stages, motorized mirror mounts, goniometers and other devices, make automating sub-micron positioning applications quick, easy, and affordable.
Zaber's products are easier to set up than competing devices. They can be daisy-chained to a single serial or USB port on any computer. No additional hardware or motor controllers are required.
 Product Abstract  
Linear Motion
Miniature Linear Actuators
These 0.1 um resolution miniature linear actuators are designed to replace manual micrometer heads on linear slides, though they have many other uses. Check the specifications to determine which miniature linear actuator is right for your application.
Linear Translation Stages
Zaber's TSB Series of translation stages are ball bearing linear stages with 28mm or 60mm of travel. They are compatible with our T-LA series miniature linear actuators and our NA11 stepper linear actuators and can be used in x-y or x-y-z stage configurations using our angle brackets.

Vacuum compatible translation stages (TSBxx-xV) use vacuum compatible greases and epoxies and non-anodized components. These translation stages have been used successfully in vacuum applications down to 10-6 Torr.
Motorized Linear Slides
T-LSR linear slides are are high performance, heavy-duty motorized linear slides.

Our fastest and strongest linear slides, they handle heavy loads and can be mounted in x-y-z configuration without any additional hardware. Integrated controllers allow T-LSR linear slides to be daisy chained with any T-series products and controlled from a single serial or USB port. A knob at the end of the linear slide permits smooth manual control. During a manual move the linear slide constantly transmits its position so the controlling computer can track it.
Motorized Linear Stages
The T-LS linear stage is a 0.1 um resolution motorized linear stage available in 13mm, 28mm and 80mm travel versions, with either metric or imperial mounting holes. Linear stages can be controlled manually or through an RS232 or USB port.

Linear stages can be used in x-y or x-y-z configuration with our AB90 angle brackets

An x-y configuration makes an excellent microscope stage, especially when combined with our T-JOY3 Joystick Controller allowing manual control of both x and y axes from a single interface as well as allowing microscope stage positions to be saved and recalled at the touch of a button. T-LS stages are also commonly used in micromanipulator applications.
Motorized Dovetail Slides
These 0.16 um resolution dovetail slides with integrated stepper motors and controllers are available in standard versions with 105mm or 260mm travel versions. Custom dovetail slides are also available in versions up to 915mm travel. If interested please contact us for more information.

For XY and XYZ configurations, we recommend T-LSR Motorized Linear Slides. T-LSR slides are designed for higher load, heavier duty, and can be mounted in XY or XYZ configuration without additional hardware.
Electric Linear Actuators
These electric linear actuators, based on standard NEMA stepper motors, offer finer resolution, higher thrust, higher speed, and longer lifetime compared to our T-LA series of linear actuators. Each electric linear actuator includes 30cm of cable wired to a mini-din 8 connector for use with our T-CD series stepper motor controller (shown above driving an NA11B-30 actuator) which must be purchased separately. Linear actuators have a built in magnetic home sensor. In addition to the listed linear actuators, we have larger NEMA size 17 and 23 actuators available in the same ranges of travel. Size 23 offers up to 200 lb force. Please contact us for more details if you are interested in higher thrust.
Rotary Motion
Stepper Motors with Built-in Controllers
These size 17 NEMA stepper motors have built in controllers and are available with an optional manual control knob.
Stepper Motors
These motors are available in standard NEMA sizes (8, 11, 17, 23, etc) and include 30 cm of cabled wired to a mini-din 8 connector for use with our T-CD series stepper motor controller which must be purchased separately. A detachable Hall effect switch and small magnet are included for applications that require a home position sensor.
Motorized Rotary Stages
Zaber's Series of precision motorized rotary stages are stepper motor driven, worm gear rotary stages capable of a full 360° rotation. Each rotary stage interfaces with our T-CD Series Stepper Motor Controller offering high resolution daisy-chainable operation.

 

Tilt and Goniometric
 
Motorized Mirror Mounts
The T-MM2 Series are motorized two axis mirror mounts. They can be controlled manually or by using the RS-232 serial interface. See the specifications at left for more details.
Motorized Goniometers
What is a goniometer? A goniometer stage (sometimes called a goniometer table) is a tilting stage that rotates about a virtual axis fixed in space above the stage surface. Zaber's LMG Series motorized goniometers are stepper motor driven positioning goniometers designed to interface with our T-CD series Stepper Motor Controller offering high resolution daisy-chainable operation. The LMG60 tilting goniometer stages pictured above are crossed roller bearing goniometers with a virtual axis of rotation 60mm above the goniometer stage surface respectively. The goniometer stage is 20mm high.
 
 
Control
Stepper Motor Controller
Zaber's T-CD stepper motor controller is a microstep driver offering microstepping down to 128 microsteps per step. With a typical stepper motor having 200 steps per revolution, the T-CD stepper motor controller allows microstepping down to to 25600 microsteps per revolution. The T-CD stepper controller can be used to control any 2 phase stepper motor with continuous current draw up to 2.5A per phase.
Zaber Device Controller
The T-CON3 provides an alternative to controlling our products through a PC serial port. It has an intuitive user interface for controlling up to 3 T-Series positioning products which can be daisy-chained directly to it creating a stand alone manual positioning system with 3 line position display (one line for each device). Perfect for remote positioning applications (such as vacuum applications) where you don't need automated computer control, but don't have access to turn micrometer heads manually. The actuator pictured is not included.
Programmable Joystick
The T-JOY3 is a programmable joystick that can control three independent axes of motion. The joystick can be daisy-chained to any T-Series motion control products, allowing for a very flexible setup. All 5 buttons of the joystick are programmable to store a location, recall a location, or a host of other functions.

The joystick can run with or without a computer attached. In stand-alone mode the joystick is a compact controller that fits easily on the lab bench. Its functionality can be expanded simply by adding a computer or laptop running Labview, Visual Basic, Microsoft Excel, or your own program. The T-JOY3 programmable joystick is the ideal controller for microscope, x-y, or x-y-z stage applications.
