Motorized Rotation Stage Selection Guide

Motorized rotation stages are a set of precision positioning products designed and built over many decades of experience in providing solutions to research and academia to industry and defense markets. Applications include semiconductor wafer inspection or scribing, metrology, micro-robotics, sensor testing, disk texturing, optics positioning like polarizers, waveplates, etc. The Newport rotation stages offering over 100 model numbers to choose from, ranging from the direct drive, direct read, high rotation speed RGV100BL-S Rotation Stage, to the multi-use, compact CONEX-PR50CC Rotation Stage with Integrated Controller. Metric and vacuum versions are available and if required, multiple axis designs, OEM or custom solutions may be quoted.
