Industrial machinery often requires advanced positioning solutions to handle intricate motion and alignment tasks. While conventional positioning tables work for many scenarios, some applications demand specialized designs to meet unique challenges.
Below, we explore examples of IKO’s advanced positioning mechanisms tailored for demanding industrial environments.
Alignment Tables (AT)
Designed for precision angular correction, these tables pair a crossed roller bearing with a linear guide and can be integrated into multi-axis systems. Compatible with both stepper and AC servomotors, IKO's AT positioning stages offer remarkable repeatability of ±1 arcsecond.
Alignment Modules (AM)
Perfect for configurations requiring X, Y, or X-Y motion, these modules feature rigid crossed roller bearings and linear guides. They support angle compensation and pivoting functionality, providing unparalleled design flexibility through versatile stage combinations.
Alignment Stages (SA)
Combining a crossed roller bearing, linear guide, and direct drive linear motor, these stages excel in X-Y-θ positioning. With their low-profile design, they’re ideal for semiconductor and liquid crystal production, as well as for precise measuring and inspection systems.
Elevating Tables (TZ)
Built for precise vertical movement, these tables achieve exceptional accuracy and repeatability with closed-loop control and a linear encoder. IKO’s TZ series incorporates C-Lube technology for long-lasting, maintenance-free performance.
Precision Positioning Stages (TSLB)
IKO’s TSLB Series utilizes a timing belt drive system paired with dual linear roller guides, delivering high-speed, high-acceleration motion with extended stroke lengths.
Cleanroom Positioning Tables (TC-EB)
Designed for ISO Class 3 cleanroom environments, these lightweight, compact tables feature specialized materials, stainless-steel sheets, and side covers to minimize particle generation. With C-Lube lubrication components, they ensure long-term, maintenance-free operation.
Custom Solutions for Unique Motion Needs
When conventional positioning devices fall short, specialized mechanisms offer the precision, flexibility, and reliability needed for challenging applications. IKO provides a comprehensive range of advanced positioning tables, including linear motor-driven and ball screw-driven options, along with tailored solutions for complex motion requirements.
