PI is releasing a new catalogue of its magnetic direct drives and air bearing technology, including actuators, linear stages, multi-axis gantry systems and customised systems. Application-specific products include precision automation in optics and semiconductor manufacturing, assembly, and test equipment.
The PIMag Magnetic Direct Drives, based on technology developed and manufactured in-house, deliver optimum performance via position and force regulation. Nanometer precision is achieved by closed-loop control with position feedback from absolute linear encoders or interferometers. 3-phase linear motors and voice coil drives provide fast acceleration, high scanning speeds, and extreme lifetime due to the zero-wear drive principle. Air bearings allow uniform motion with constant velocity, very smooth positioning without rumble coupled in from mechanical bearings.
A family of motion controllers, along with robust software covers all aspects of application integration from easy setup to cross-platform use and high-speed communication.
