Sealed design with optional air purge
Hard-coated tabletop and waycovers
Optional high-accuracy, noncontact linear encoder
Long-life linear motion guide bearing system
The ATS2000 is a compact, high-performance stage that is as accurate as it is reliable. A rigid base, fully sealed metal waycovers and high-performance brushless servomotor make the ATS2000 the stage of choice in industrial applications such as laser machining, ceramic scribing or any other application requiring high accuracy in a production environment.
Based on the same platform as the larger ATS5000 series, the ATS2000 has many of the same design features. The tabletop utilizes stainless steel Helicoil™ inserts to protect mounting holes against thread wear. An integral metal waycover is provided to protect the stage from hot sparks or debris. Both the metal waycover and tabletop are treated with a hardcoat (Rockwell 62 hardness) that is scratch-resistant and provides outstanding protection in the harshest applications.
To further provide the stage with protection from a caustic environment, the ATS2000 utilizes Aerotech\'s unique tensioned side-seal system. The seals are in a vertical orientation that prevents debris from accumulating on top of them, and are tensioned to create a tight seal. An optional air-purge fitting is available that allows air to be forced into the body of the stage. This creates a positive pressure that prevents any particulate, no matter how fine, from entering the stage.
To aid in system assembly, the base mounting holes are located outboard of the stage.
Sealed linear motion guide bearings with integral wipers are incorporated to provide excellent payload capability and long life. Noncontact linear encoders with submicron repeatabilities are available on all ATS2000 series stages. Optional HALAR and HALSF factory calibration options are available that further increase the standard accuracy, straightness and flatness specifications to even finer precision.
Included with all ATS2000 series stages is Aerotech\'s high performance BMS series brushless, slotless servomotor. Aerotech manufactures a wide range of matching drives and controls to provide a fully integrated and optimized solution.

Excessive duty cycle may impact stage accuracy.
Payload specifications are for single-axis system and based on ball screw and bearing life of 2500 km (100 million inches) of travel.
Available with Aerotech controllers.
Specifications are for single-axis systems measured 25 mm above the tabletop. Performance of multi-axis systems is payload and workpoint dependent. Consult factory for multi-axis or non-standard applications.
