Motorized XYtable

The first diffraction gratings were often a row of slits which functioned as a transmission grating, as shown at left. Modern diffraction gratings are a reflective blazed grating type that has a sawtooth cross-section, as shown at right. As light that passed through an adequately fine slit is diffracted, so light reflected from an adequately fine sawtooth surface is also diffracted. There are 500 to 2000 serrations per millimeter.

Xeryon’s ultrasonic piezo stages are much faster, have a much larger stroke, a much (much!) longer lifetime, operate noiselessly, consume less power, and operate at a much lower voltage at the piezo element.

Yes, this is possible. All of our stages can be paired, sometimes even without the need of mounting brackets. Easily build multi-DOF setups, with or without rotary axes.

In the past, the sawtooth face of a commercially produced diffraction grating is the replica of a master grating. A thin synthetic-resin replica is stuck onto a glass sheet and coated with aluminum. The master was traditionally produced using a machine tool, but now the surface is formed by an ion beam or using laser beam photolithography. This photolithographic process produces gratings with fewer imperfections. This smoother surface reduces stray light (light at unwanted wavelengths) by significant amounts.

Motorized xy stagediagram

You’re looking at an OEM XY stage driven by ultrasonic piezo motors. This stage is developed in collaboration with Wienecke & Sinske GmbH.

XY Stage(Manual)

For larger quantities, the XWS can be customized to specific needs. Its low-profile design allows for easy OEM integration.

A motorized XY stage and controller + software are included by default. Other controls upon request. Joystick available upon request as well.

The 'XWS' piezo XY stages offer a unique combination of high speed, precision, long stroke, and durability in compact design, overcoming the limitations of traditional XY stages where trade-offs have to be made (e.g. stroke length, size factor or speed). Xeryon’s XY motorized stages are gearless, self-locking, energy-efficient and operate at low voltages. They don’t produce a magnetic field, are back-driveable, and free from drift or play.

This motorized XY stage gives you fast and precise planar motion while also providing you plenty of power and a large surface and aperture.

The XWS is a precise, high-speed XY stage driven by two ultrasonic piezo motors. This allows for fast positioning with submicron precision. The self-locking piezo motor holds the position of the stage when it is not powered. As a result, heat dissipation is considerably reduced.
