Newmark's Microslide series linear stages offer high performance in a small package.
Microslide linear slides are designed for space limited applications and can be configured in compact multi-axis assemblies. The Microslide linear stages offer very high resolution when driven by the NSC-A1 or NSC-G controllers.
All Microslide series stages are machined from 6061 aluminum alloy to provide a light and stable construction. For more reliability and durability, the guide rods, leadscrew and switches are protected by a strong aluminum cover. The use of linear guide rod bearings provide a smooth motion.
Separate connectors for motor power and limit switch signals are provided for ease of operation. Integrated limit switches and a high torque size 17 stepper motor are supplied as standard items. The Microslide weighs less than a pound.
