Translation Stages 7T173 allow manual linear motion. Our standard micrometers 9S75M are used as driving screws. Customer may specify other screws, e.g. with non-matching travel range to save space. A Platform is spring preloaded against the driving screw to provide high resolution, low backlash, smooth and accurate motion. An array of mounting holes on a platform and on a base provide a variety of convenient mounting options, including mounting on 3MP series Posts.
