Q-522 Miniature Stage
Setting up a multi-axis system
1. Insert the two locating pins into the locating holes on the bottom side of the
upper Q-522 or in the moving platform of the lower Q-522 (see figures above).
2. Place the upper Q-522 on the lower Q-522 so that the locating pins are
inserted into the corresponding locating holes on the other side.
3. Affix the upper Q-522 to the lower Q-522 using two M2 screws:
a) Manually displace the moving platform of the upper Q-522 until one of the
two counter-sunk holes in the base body is accessible.
b) Introduce the screw into the counter-sunk hole.
c) Tighten the screw with a maximum torque of 35 Ncm.
d) Make sure that the screw head does not protrude from the counter-sunk
hole.
e) Repeat the steps a) to d) for the other counter-sunk hole in the base body
of the Q-522.
4. Check that the upper Q-522 fits on the lower Q-522 without backlash.
5.4 Affixing the Load to the Q-522
NOTICE
Impermissibly high forces and torques!
Impermissibly high forces and torques that are applied to the moving platform can
damage the Q-522.
For affixing type and mass of the load, observe the maximum permissible forces
according to the specifications (p. 47).
Avoid tilting torques at the moving platform.
NOTICE
Screws that are too long!
The Q-522 can be damaged by screws that are too long.
Note the depth of the mounting holes in the moving platform (p. 51).
Only use screws of the correct length for the respective mounting holes.
