Description

Lesker Heavy duty Y-Shifts - Linear Displacement Mechanism
Features
- For Y-shift adjustment or alignment of specimen transfer tools
- Compatible with ultrahigh vacuum
- Provides small movement normal (90°) to the axis of a transfer system mainly to correct transporter droop
- Mounting flange is either a metric tapped 4-1/2" or 6" O.D. CF (also tapped at half-pitch, allowing for "inline" [European] or "straddle" [U.S.] orientation)
- Support cantilevered loads
- Work in any orientation—provides horizontal movement if mounted horizontally, diagonal if mounted diagonally, etc.
- Can provide the extra axis of freedom required for sample hand-off when combined with any standard rack-and-pinion or magnetically coupled transfer arm
- Can align any flange-mounted instrument
- Handwheel, optional DC motor, or stepper motor actuation
- Travel range: ±5mm
- Bakeable to 250°C (with motor removed)
- Precision-ground stainless steel guide system
