Z Translators DN40/63/100CF Base Flange & DN40CF Top Flange

These Z translators can be used either as a stand-alone Z axis translator or in combination with an XY platform to produce a long travel XYZ manipulator that is both rigid and cost effective. Despite their modest price, these Z translators will provide years of trouble-free service, especially if the simple maintenance is performed.
These Z translators feature precision ground guide rods that are fully supported the entire length of travel. This feature is not found on many other brands. This provides even greater stability and rigidity, especially on long travel models. Z translators with strokes of up to 152cm (60”) are available, and can be mounted either horizontally or vertically.
The lower flange can be fitted with support guides for long sample probes. This significantly reduces sag and vibrations in things like long, slim LN2 dewars, sample holders and intro rods. The support bearings are vented and allow clearance for thermocouple and power wires.
Options include both stepper motors and DC motors. Both motor options include limit switches. The DC motor option includes a hand held forward/reverse switch and a variable speed control. These Z translators have been designed to allow motors to be easily added in the field, thereby avoiding time consuming and costly factory returns.
Top flange is tapped, base flange has clearance bolt holes.
Standard specifications are shown here, special versions can be made to suit your individual requirements.
