The Six Myths of Stage Error Mapping
Stage-error mapping – measuring absolute positioning error at a specified set of sampling points – has gained a reputation as a method for achieving high-accuracy motion control with lower-cost equipment. The theory is sound. The problem is that there are a lot of misconceptions around stage-error mapping that can lead to its use in unsuitable applications, with disappointing results. Want to dispel the myths of stage-error mapping and learn how you can use it for maximum benefit? Read on.
Free-Space Optical Communication (FSOC)
Free-Space Optical Communication (FSOC) technology is rapidly gaining popularity as a means of high-speed data transmission over long distances. However, the successful implementation of FSOC systems relies heavily on precision positioning of the optical components. In particular, high resonance motion systems used in FSOC applications require accurate and reliable positioning...
Five Tips for Specifying Motion Systems for Step and Settle Applications
[Editor’s note: For a detailed discussion of how to specify the stage for step and settle applications, see our whitepaper https://www.motionsolutions.com/white-papers/how-to-choose-the-best-motion-system-for-your-step-and-settle-application/ Step and settle motion is a fundamental support technology for a variety of critical systems, such as DNA sequencers, semiconductor wafer-inspection systems, diagnostic imagers, and more. While OEMs typically...
