Python Theta Module
Description 4
4.1 Adept Python Theta Modules
The LT1 Theta module adds a 4th axis to a Python system, providing additional handling
options. Use the Adept 3D Linear Module Builder section of the Adept website
(www.adept.com) to select, configure, and request a quote for your Theta modules. The
website and this chapter provide detailed information about Adept Python Theta
modules. See Chapter 3 for information about one-, two-, and three-axis linear modules.
Single-Axis and Multiple-Axis Configurations
You can order a single Adept Python Theta module system consisting of a single module,
MB-10 amplifier, and a SmartController CX. Or, multiple modules can be assembled into a
complete multi-axis system.
4.2 Theta Module Options
The following options are configurable for Theta modules:
• Module preparation (standard or ESD)
• Interface (flange or shaft)
L-Series Module Type
Currently, LT1 is the available Theta module type. See “Single-Axis Theta Modules” on
page 75 for Theta module dimensions. LT1 Theta modules have the following
construction features:
• Rigid aluminum body for high stiffness, with precision-machined tolerances for
increased concentricity and repeatability
• Dual pre-loaded heavy duty radial ball bearings for maximized stiffness and
increased load capacity
• High-precision Harmonic Drive component set for increased torque and
repeatability
• Maintenance-free operation: bearing and drive components are lubricated for life
• High-performance AC servo motors with 8 kHz servo update rate and optimized
current loop tuning in amplifier
• Serial absolute encoders with 65,536 counts/rev resolution, no homing required
