25, 50, 100, 150, 200 mm travel
Up to 100 mm/s speed and up to 35 N thrust
10 kg load capacity
Designed for use with a X-MCB1 Series stepper motor controller or any 2-phase stepper motor controller
Only 7 feedthrough wires required to control these units
Custom versions available
For more information about the basics of a vacuum system and considerations to keep in mind when gathering requirements for your application, read our technical article, "Motion Device Design Considerations for Vacuum Applications".
Zaber's LSM-V1 Series devices are low-vacuum compatible, computer-controlled, motorized linear stages with high thrust and speed capabilities, and a compact size.
At only 21 mm high, these miniature stages are excellent for applications where a small profile is required. The LSM-V1 is designed with vacuum compatible materials to minimize outgassing and allow for faster pump down times. Like all of Zaber's products, the LSM-V1 Series is designed to be very easy to set up and operate.
These stages are wired with a male D-sub 15 connector for plug-and-play use with our X-MCB1 Series stepper motor controllers. Simply cut the connector off for flying leads in vacuum and match the wire connections outside of the vacuum for an easy connection. Our handy kits include free software, and all of the accessories that you will need to get the stage running right out of the box.

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).
