ANAHEIM AUTOMATION
Screw-Driven Linear Stages
Anaheim Automation Standard Precision Screw-Driven Linear Stages, also known as linear actuator tables, are proudly designed and manufactured here in the U.S.A. Our robust, durable screw drive actuators are an excellent choice for a wide range of light- to heavy-duty applications where accuracy, repeatability, and minimizing maintenance are major concerns. Some suitable applications include:
  • lab automation equipment
  • biotech automation
  • inspection stations
  • part scanning
  • pick & place
  • liquid dispensing
  • part insertion
  • and many more!

Our LS100 and LS500 tables are easily scalable. Build your own assembly by choosing from a selection of standard options, or completely customize your assembly with help from our applications engineers.  Read More >>

What is a screw-driven actuator? How does a screw-driven positioning table work?
A screw driven linear actuator, or "positioning table," is a device which translates the rotary motion of a motor into linear motion along one or more axis via rolling contact. The major components of a linear actuator table include the carriage, screw, rail or guide, the motor, limit switches, and the controller. The carriage is a plate which rides on the rails and is driven by the turning of the screw.

What sets screw actuators apart from other types of linear actuators?
Screw-driven linear actuators, or "motorized linear slides," are known for their high-thrust capabilities. In addition, their accuracy, repeatability, and low system inertia offer a predictable, reliable service life.
