Ultra-Compact Integrated 3 Axis Micromanipulator

Steinmeyer, Inc. announced the MP63 3 axis micro manipulator module, a fully enclosed 3 axis positioner with 25 mm stroke in each direction. Included inside the compact precision assembly are dc gear motors, rotary encoders, lead screws, and non-contact limit switches. Accuracy in each direction is 5 microns with ± 1 micron repeatability.

Standard straightness and flatness is ± 3 microns (1 micron is available as an option). The entire assembly weighs about 2 kg and all components are inside. Cable connectors are located on one end for convenience and simplicity. And, as an option, the assembly can be made clean room compatible.

The Steinmeyer group is comprised of two manufacturing divisions located in Germany. August Steinmeyer GmbH & Co. KG (located in Albstadt) has been setting standards for high precision ball screws for over 40 years and prides itself on high quality, innovative designs to meet demanding customer requirements. Our Feinmess Dresden (FMD) division has been producing an extensive line of high precision positioning systems for well over 130 years.
