C: X-AXIS PROBE WITH AUTOMATED ROTATION STAGE
ICEoxford uses the latest generation of motorised worm-gear-drive rotary stages. This provides significant improvement in speed, load capacity and long term positioning performance.
The rotation stage base is fabricated from an aluminium alloy giving strength and stability for weight critical applications e.g. multi-axis arrangements. Each stage is designed with high precision angular contact bearings with optimal spacing to provide excellent error motions coupled with high load capacities in a small compact package.
Our Automated Rotation Stages are designed for use with ICEoxford systems and are compatible with existing inserts up to 70mm in diameter.
Top loading probes insert into the system via a flange with a sliding seal to position your sample at the field centre. Heat transfer to the sample region is minimised through radiation baffles and a thin walled stainless steel tube to minimise conduction.
A copper sample holder typically terminates the sample rod with a fire rod heater and sensor. At the top, a housing supplies access to the sample region from room temperature.
Height range ±32mm motion with position accuracy of 0.5mm |
360° about z-axis with position accuracy of 1° |
Manually adjusting sample space motion by physically relocating the sample rod up/down |
Drive rotates the worm-gear to rotate sample holder |
Accurate motion is obtained using micrometer placed on the top of the probe |
0-360° rotation perpendicular to the magnetic field. 0.1° rotation accuracy |
Stepper motor automatic rotation can be fitted for higher accuracy and automatic motion control using LabVIEW |
Compatible with Helium 3 and Dilution Insert systems |
