Customizable and adaptable to design requirements, Z-Theta system achieves rotary axis and linear axis in single unit that, when operated in coordinated motion, can effectively create a helical motion path. System can also be used to move to defined linear positions and then perform independent rotary moves. Based on Kerk ScrewRail®, design leverages Haydon and Pittman motor technology for linear and rotary power. Loads up to 100 lb and speeds in >10 ips are possible.
