The PRO225SL and PRO225SLE are Aerotech’s second-generation PRO225 stage designs with many improvements and added features. Enhanced positioning specifications coupled with competitive pricing make the PRO225SL/SLE stage the ideal choice for both medium and high-performance applications. The design is similar to the PRO165SL/SLE series, providing additional load capacity and stiffness with larger bearings and a wider cross-section.
Rugged Mechanical Construction
A long-life recirculating linear guide bearing system and a low-friction sealing solution make the PRO225SL/SLE an attractive solution for industrial applications such as laser machining. The basic external construction of the PRO225SL/SLE design provides protection from debris while the side-seals prevent dirt and particulates from entering the stage. The curved hard-cover design provides a natural shape that prevents excessive debris from collecting on the stage.
Linear Encoder Option
For applications requiring direct-metrology of the output carriage, the PRO225SLE integrates a direct linear encoder that is protected by the stage sealing system. Amplified sine, digital TTL output, and absolute encoders are available as standard options for linear feedback.
