Industrial Line
Nano Drives for Industry
With the Industrial Line series of positioners, attocube has genuinely
combined highest precision piezodrive technology with extremely
rugged yet cost effective design. All Industrial Line positioners are
dedicated for operation at ambient temperature and at pressures
ranging from atmospheric to UHV.
High Loads
Facilitated by their unique piezodrive technology, their stiff
mechanical design, and the application of crossed roller
bearings, ECS positioners are capable of moving and placing loads
of up to several kg on the nanometer scale.

The Industrial Line drive series is precisely engineered for applications
where space is frequently constrained while load and torque applied to
the positioning units may be significant. This powerful performance is
supplemented by the ECC100 drive electronics which enables open and
closed loop positioning with 1 nm/1 µ° position resolution.
Closed Loop Control
In conjunction with the three-axis drive electronics ECC100,
ECS positioners are capable of a closed loop 1 positioning
resolution of 1 nm (1 µ°) while providing travel velocities of up
to Control
4.5 mm/s (10 °/s). A position repeatability of 50 nm (50 µ°)
Closed Loop
tops off the specification of the Industrial Line.
Materials & Life Expectancy Large Travel Ranges
For Industrial Line positioners special emphasis was put on
both life endurance and cost effective manufacturing. The room
temperature optimized drive mechanism, combined with the choice
of aluminum or stainless steel as main body material, enables a
significant cost reduction compared to positioners of the Premium
Line, while achieving a life span about 500,000 cycles 1 . Positioners of the ECS series take advantage of a drive mechanism
based on attocube‘s patented inertial drive technology, modified
specifically for applications at ambient temperature where large
travel ranges of several centimeters are mandatory.
Multi Axis Operation Vacuum Compatibility
attocube‘s ECS positioners are available in a wide variety of Positioners of the Industrial Line are dedicated for operation at
room temperature and pressures ranging from ultra high vacuum
to ambient. All stages are either available in anodized Aluminum or
stainless steel, satisfying both optical and UHV applications..
