AAK Series Combined Manual Stages, 3–6 Axes, 60 × 60 mm Platform
AAK SeriesDesign Tools
Combined 3- to 6-axis manual stage stacks built from AK-series linear, rotary and goniometer stages.
AAK series combined manual stages stack AK-series components into 3-, 4-, 5- and 6-axis assemblies with a 60 × 60 mm stage surface. Every version provides ±6.5 mm XYZ travel; the 4-axis adds θz rotation, the 5-axis adds a θx goniometer and the 6-axis adds a θy goniometer. Left- and right-hand drive versions are available.
Key Features
- X and Y: AK13A-6020 linear stages; Z: AKV13A-60Z vertical stage, ±6.5 mm travel each
- Micrometer scale of 10 µm per division on the linear axes
- θz rotation stage (AKR10A-60): 360° coarse and 10° fine rotation, 50.4″ per division
- θx goniometer AKG75-60 (±8°) on 5- and 6-axis models; θy goniometer AKG50-60 (±10°) on 6-axis models
- Left (L) or right (R) drive location
- Aluminum alloy body with good corrosion resistance; compact structure
- Load capacity from 3 kg (3-axis) to 1.5 kg (6-axis)
Typical Applications
- Multi-axis alignment of optical components
- Fiber and beam coupling setups
- Sample positioning with tilt and rotation
- Laboratory and teaching optical setups
