WIRE SCANNER POSITIONING
The Challenge:
Ultra-reliable and precise positioning of a Wire Scanner with minimal deflection under vacuum load which meets the customer's wiring and communication (encoder) standards.
Our Solution:
We designed and supplied a motorised ballscrew driven linear shift mechanism which offers high positional precision and repeatibility with outstanding reliability. In addition, the ballscrew design offers <1mrad defection under vacuum load (compared with 2mrad for our standard linear shift range).

3-POSITION BEAM DIAGNOSTICS
The Challenge:
Supply a pneumatically actuated 3-position linear shift (retracted, extended and intermediate positions) with positional repeatability of the intermediate stop of <+/-0.05mm.
Our Solution:
We designed and supplied a 3-position pneumatically actuated linear shift mechanism with positional reproducibilty of the intermediate stop of +/-0.02mm. The linear shift was designed to work a fail-safe pneumatic circuit with a provision for the linear shift to use a padlock in the retracted position. In addition we incorporated a 2 degree tilt into the travelling flange to aid with the final alignment of the beam diagnostic equipment
