Motorized Linear Stage: The BX - Series
The BX - series offers motorized linear stages with high repeatability (down to ± 0.25 µm) for precise positioning tasks in industry, research and automation.
Depending on the application, variants with ball guides (BXS) for short travel distances and with recirculating ball guides (BXN) for longer travel distances are available. Thanks to various control variants (open/closed loop, RS-485, Ethernet, EtherCAT), the BX series can be flexibly integrated into different control environments.
