Z606 In Stock

The Z606 by ThorLabs is a motorized actuator is the perfect solution for optical positioning devices in demanding laboratory automation applications. With a high-resolution design and a lightweight, compact package, the Z606 offers exceptional performance and versatility.

Equipped with an optical encoder for closed-loop operation and built-in limit switches that provide overdrive protection, the Z606 is specifically designed for use in mirror mounts with 1/4"-80 manual adjusters. Its 6 mm of travel is ideal for applications where a normal micrometer or adjustment screw threads into a mount. This actuator utilizes a 12V DC servomotor that provides sufficient torque for high load capabilities. Its 256:1 gear reduction head offers very small movements over the entire travel range, allowing greater flexibility with negligible backlash and fine resolution. With continuously variable speeds and closed-loop operation, the Z606 ensures precise and effective control over instrumentation.

Designed for durability, the Z606 is light, compact, and suitable for a wide range of components that need a greater amount of precision than what the majority of standard drive mechanisms allow. Its minimum incremental movement is sub-micron and makes it suitable for all high precision applications, and its compatibility with a wide array of controllers makes it easy to incorporate into existing setups. Performing complex tasks or complicated alignment procedures will take less time than before with the Z606, and its high repeatability means faster overall performance of complex scanning. Additionally, this actuator is deal for use in translation stages, microscopes, OEM applications, and a variety of other components.
