White Paper: Cost Effective High Precision Linear & Rotary Axes

The performance of today’s high precision servo-driven, computer-controlled machines is directly related to the stiffness and accuracy of their linear & rotary axes drive systems. In order to achieve precise positioning and repeatability of these axes, the mechanical components must be manufactured to very tight tolerances (on the order of 20 microns (0.0008″)). Manufacturing these parts in small quantities (per machine basis) is very expensive and threatens the competitive position of the machine manufacturer. However, component manufacturers who supply high precision mechanical components to many machine manufacturers are able to develop standard ranges of high-quality products that are produced in quantity with well-defined processes at extremely competitive prices.
