Precision Locator
The precision locator option provides a small pneumatically powered fixture for precisely
locating the carrier that is mounted on a puck at a process station. When using the precision
locator option, standard MM LITE straight motors are used and the precision locator is posi-
tioned on the motors as shown in Figure 1-6.
Precision locator option specifications:
• Single Puck Exchange Time: 0.8 seconds with 1 kg load.
• X/Y Repeatability: ±0.05 mm.
• Z Repeatability: +0.0/-0.05 mm.
• Vertical load on the pallet while secured in the precision locator: 500 N
[112 lbf] (higher loads possible based on pallet design).
• Actuator position sensor option.

• Pallet – Replaces the standard top plate on the puck and carries the payload. Can be
provided by MagneMotion or custom designed by the user for their application.
• Precision Locator – Pneumatic mechanism that is used to constrain the pallet at the
station.
• Locator Stand – Attaches to the beam support structure (or user-supplied motor
mounting system) providing support and positions the precision locator.
• Adjustable Motor Mount – Provides fine adjustment of the motor when positioning
within the precision locator stand.
