LSMT (Linear Translators with Tilt) Series

The LSMT series provides Z motion together with the ability to tilt the travelling flange.  This is typically selected to enable the final alignment of an instrument or probe.  The series is available with a variety of flange, stroke and actuation options.

Actuation methods

The tilt motion takes place via manual adjusters.  The main linear motion can be actuated via a manual handwheel, a pneumatic actuator, a DC motor or stepper motor (click here to view actuation options).  Each LSMT can now be supplied with the new digital linear scale, offering visual position indication with 10 mm resolution.

UHV Design also offer motor control solutions including the handheld DC motor controller and the programmable stepper motor control centre.
