The old practice of evaluating products based solely upon product catalog specifications, such as repeatability, accuracy, pitch, roll, and yaw, supplied by the manufacturer can be a very risky way to choose a product, especially in the submicron and nanometer performance range. In today's ultra-high precision environment, it is imperative to have a clear understanding of the origin of motion control specifications. Knowing how they are derived can be ultimately more telling than the numerical value itself.Upon request, Newport will supply historical test data for most of its motorized positioners. For more information on Motion Control specifications and technology, please review our Motion Control Tutorial and Application Notes, or contact your local Newport Applications Engineer.
