■Operating temperature and environment
Recommended operating environment: 10~50℃, 20~70%RH (no condensation)
Accuracy assurance environment: 22±5℃, 20~70%RH (no condensation)
■Guiding mechanism
This positioning stage adopts crossed roller guide as the guiding mechanism. Please refill the lubricant at the right time according to the usage conditions to prevent the life of crossed roller guide from being shortened due to the decrease of lubricant and aging.
■Clamping mechanism
①The clamping mechanism of the positioning stage is fixed by the frictional force generated by the fastening screw, so when the applied external force exceeds the frictional force of the clamping mechanism section, it will cause the positioning stage to move. The user should take appropriate measures to avoid movement of the positioning stage surface during use. If clamping reinforcement is required, disc clamping or opposite clamping can be selected.
②The holding force is the value of the force that keeps the positioning stage surface from moving in the clamped condition. Since the maximum holding force varies with the tightening torque, please ensure a sufficiently large safety factor when designing.
■Feed mechanism
The shape of a positioning stage with a micrometer knob installed as shown in the figure below is generally called the standard type. Free selection is possible by combining the installation space, mounting posture, and operation method. However, due to the structure of the product, there are some models where the installation position of the micrometer knob cannot be changed. For details, refer to the [Alteration] at the bottom of each product page.

■Flatness of the mounting surface
The upper and lower positioning stage surface may be deformed due to the different flatness of its mounting surface. Deformation of the positioning stage surface may result in gaps, looseness due to failure to obtain the specified preload, or poor sliding due to excessive preload. Therefore, it is recommended that the flatness of the mounting surface be kept at about 5 microns.
