Electric Positioning Slides with Automated Controls

Controller (Included)

Slide

With an included controller and an integrated stepper motor, these slides are a complete precision motion control system. The stepper motor moves the low-friction ball screw and carriage smoothly at high speeds, similar to an inkjet printer head. To make sure the carriage is in the right place, the built-in encoder sends data to the controller. At ± 0.02 mm, these slides have a repeatability thinner than a single strand of hair, so the carriage hits the same spot every time. They work well in automated assemblies and other processes requiring accurate, repeatable motion.

For the initial setup, program the slides using the free, downloadable software, THK D-STEP. No coding necessary—simply enter the target position, speed, and acceleration for up to 16 different slides. This software also records position, speed, and motor current data, so you can monitor performance, optimize motion, and troubleshoot issues.

After the initial setup, the controller stores and runs sequences of up to 512 unique steps on its own. The controller also communicates with other devices such as PLCs, switches, and sensors. This means it can be integrated into a larger automated system to react to or trigger other processes as the carriage moves.

Travel distance per turn, also known as screw lead, is how far the carriage moves with one rotation of the ball screw.

Dynamic load capacity is the maximum load slides can move. If you increase the speed, the dynamic load capacity decreases. Use a load-speed chart to confirm which slides will work for your application. Click on a part number and select "Product Detail" to view the chart.

Clean Room Electric Positioning Slides

Controller (Included)

Slide

Prevent dust from circulating while precisely positioning parts for drilling, fastening, assembly, and measuring. These slides have a built-in vacuum port to remove fine particles that could damage electronics or contaminate batches in clean rooms. Because they have an integrated stepper motor with an included controller, you can adjust the speed, timing, and positioning with no extra software required. At ± 0.02 mm, these slides have a repeatability thinner than a single sheet of paper, so the carriage hits the same spot every time. Unlike air-powered actuators, they’ll hold their position even if power fails. They’re also more energy efficient.

Maximum speed is how fast the slide will move under no-load conditions. If you increase the load, the slide speed will decrease.

Travel distance per full step determines the control you have over the slide’s positioning. The smaller the measurement, the finer positioning control you have.

Travel distance per turn, also known as screw lead, is how far the carriage moves with one rotation of the ball screw.

Miniature Electric Actuators with Automated Controls

Rod Style

Slide Table Style

Smaller than any other actuator in our offering, these actuators’ short stroke length makes them good for automating fine, precise adjustments. They’re often used for aligning, pressing, and diverting. They come with an all-in-one motion control system to set the speed, timing, and position with buttons—no programming is required.

Rod-style actuators have threads on the front of the rod.

Slide table-style actuators give you setup flexibility, since you can mount equipment on top or in front. Mount on top to reduce the space you need to move a full stroke length.

Low-Profile Electric Positioning Slides with Automated Controls

Less than one-third the height of standard electric positioning slides, these slides push and pull small parts in electronics manufacturing, robotics, and other automated processes. They have a magnetic linear motor to generate fast and precise motion while taking up only a tiny footprint. With a controller and driver also included, they’re an all-in-one actuation system. Use them where extreme precision is needed—they have a repeatability of ±0.5 microns, which is 1/50,000th of an inch.

Download free CME2 software during initial setup for easy, point-and-click programming. Controllers using CME2 can store and run sequences of up to 32 steps. For added speed and flexibility, these slides are also compatible with CPL, used to write advanced custom programs.

Low-Temperature Electric Positioning Slides

Controller (Included)

Slide

Precisely position parts in conditions as cold as -90° F. These slides contain a grease that lubricates even in low temperatures. With an integrated stepper motor, they’re a complete motion control system for automated assemblies. A controller is included, so you can adjust the speed, timing, and positioning with no extra software required. These slides are often used in actions that require fine, repeatable movement, such as drilling, fastening, assembly, and measuring. The carriage extends the same distance every time within ±0.02 mm, a margin thinner than a sheet of paper.

Travel distance per full step determines the control you have over the slide’s positioning. The smaller the measurement, the finer positioning control you have.

Travel distance per turn, also known as screw lead, is how far the carriage moves with one rotation of the ball screw.
