Closed-Loop Picomotor™ Actuator

The model 8310 closed-loop Picomotor actuator is ideal for applications where closed-loop control and absolute position calibration is required. With an integrated rotary encoder and limit switches, it offers the best attributes of the standard Picomotor actuator, ie. <30-nm resolution, >5 lbs. (22 N) of force along with set-and-forget long-term stability and ±1-µm bi-directional repeatability over the entire half-inch travel range.
