RSW Series: Motorized rotation stages with Auto Detect
Speed up to 75 rpm and torque up to 280 N⋅cm
23 mm aperture
Worm gear driven for continuous rotation
Two lens holders allow for use as a polarizer mount
Designed for use with an X-MCC Series stepper motor controller or any 2-phase stepper motor controller
With Auto Detect, the X-MCC controller configures its settings automatically for the connected peripheral
Zaber's RSW precision motorized rotation stage is stepper motor and worm gear driven and capable of continuous rotation. The stages are designed to connect directly to our X-MCC Series universal motor controllers, or they can be used with any 2-phase stepper motor controller through the panel mount DB15 connector. Set up is easy with Auto Detect. Once connected, the X-MCC controller will automatically detect and configure the RSW.

Specification Charts and Notes
Thrust or torque is a function of speed. The values given above are maximums. These values cannot both be achieved simultaneously (i.e. at maximum speed, the unit will not produce maximum thrust).
