The direct-drive linear ServoSlide system eliminates wear, friction, backlash and compliances associated with mechanical transmissions. A linear motor forcer features noncontact design and low cogging for fast and accurate positioning. A carriage support double-rod bearing system is integrated into the slide to support a moving carriage and to provide dynamic stiffness and precise straightness of travel. The carriage preloads the bearing rollers, and an integral linear encoder provides precision noncontact linear position feedback with resolution 1 micron. Limit and Home sensors establish end of travel and "home" positions. A cable transport module with high-flex robotic cable is installed and prewired to the amplifier.
