Newport motion is a world leading provider of motion systems with purpose driven material design. When applications require linear translation stages with high flatness and straightness, excellent thermal stability and minimal deformation under load, Newport turns to steel. Newport's all-steel construction stages offer advantages unmatched by competing designs that use a combination of steel and aluminum. Newport Steel Stages minimize thermally induced positioning errors endemic to bi-metallic construction. With excellent load capacities and minimal deformation under load, Newport steel stages can move large payloads without loss to positioning performance. Newport steel stages are an excellent option for applications that include: surface metrology, inspection systems, bio-medical applications, laser systems, vacuum applications and many more. Newport steel stages can be integrated in custom motion systems, or provided with application specific modifications. To learn more click on Newport Custom Motion.
