Small USB Motorized Linear Stages

SKU: CMMS

The CMLS Series Miniature Motorized Stages offer an innovative design that combines submicron precision with user-friendly operation and affordability, making them an ideal choice for programmable motion applications. These stages feature a dual-bearing design to eliminate backlash and a proprietary optical encoder, achieving nanometer-level resolution and submicron repeatability.
Each stage incorporates a built-in smart motor driver with USB/RS232 interfaces. A manual control knob is integrated into the system: pressing it switches to manual mode, rotating it initiates movement, increasing the speed as it turns, with the direction reversed when rotated past the center. An Ethernet control option is available through an additional control box. The system includes a wall-pluggable power supply and an intuitive downloadable GUI, with a command list provided for custom programming. The unit’s mounting plate is compatible with optical setups. Multiple ILSM stages can be interconnected with included cables, allowing for control via a single USB/RS232 or Ethernet control GUI interface — ideal for configuring XYZ stages using various ILSM models.
