4-Axis RF/Microwave Micropositoner
This Micropositioner is designed for RF probing. The positioner has one inch movements in all axes and captured cross-roller bearings to prevent accidentally moving the tip if bumped. An integral co-planarity adjustment provides for adjusting G-S-G tip planarity. It’s available with head configurations allowing the microwave head to be introduced from the front, rear, left or right side.
This Micropositioner has been specifically engineered for the unique demands of high-frequency testing, rather than just modified from an existing DC design. Extended length ball and race bearings, captive leadscrews, and increased mass insure non-resonant performance to W-Band and beyond.
[Features]
- 25mm of X-Y and Z translation.
- A planarization adjustment assures planer contact of the GSG/GS/SG probe.
- The stiff micropositioner body assures near-zero backlash when moving the probe, even when using rigid or semirigid signal cables.
- North, South, East & West options permit up to 4 probes or wedges to be used simultaneously.
