The
BSI
positioning
stage
represents
a new
approach
to stability
and
smoothness
for
both
scientific
and
manufacturing
applications.
Our
patented
linear
slide
combines
the
line
contact
advantages
of a
cross-roller
bearing
with
the
stability
and
damping
of the
pure
friction,
dovetail
design.
This
unique
approach
results
in a
stiffer
linear
bearing
structure
without
the
characteristic
high
coefficient
of
friction
of conventional
dovetail
and
square-way
slides.
Although
frictional
values
are
somewhat
higher
than
typical
rolling-element
slides,
the
BSI
stage
has
a clear
advantage
in relatively
low
duty-cycle,
micrometer-driven,
positioning
stage
applications.
The
BSI
stage
offers
a number
of important
features
and
performance
advantages:
- Physically
wider
than
many
similar
units
for
improved
cross-axis
stability.
