Control Units for Motorized Manipulators<br />
Choice of two control units with<br />
increasing complexity<br />
• Push button control unit<br />
• 3-direction joystick control unit<br />
EC1 60-0577 Push Button<br />
Control Unit<br />
• Provides simultaneous movement in three axes<br />
• Permits easy placement of probe within accuracy<br />
of 2 or 3 µm<br />
• For either ‘step’ or continuous motion<br />
• Simple push button control<br />
Push Button Control Unit<br />
Movement, forward or back, in each of three axes is controlled by six push<br />
buttons. The amount of time the button is depressed determines the type<br />
of movement that occurs. By pressing a button for less than 1 second, a<br />
‘step’ movement is provided. Pressing the button for more than 1 second<br />
activates continuous movement until the button is released.<br />
This control unit has two control knobs: one for ‘step’ size and one for<br />
continuous motion speed. The ‘Step’ size knob ranges from 0.5 to 10<br />
microns graduated in 0.5 micron increments. The continuous motion knob<br />
provides speeds up to 0.2 mm/sec. The ‘step’ size and speed are equal for<br />
all three axes. Backlash on reversing directions has been essentially<br />
eliminated with this control unit. At each reversal an additional current<br />
pulse compensates almost completely for gear/spindle slack. This is<br />
particularly important in the step mode as it eliminates ‘dead steps’ when<br />
the motor turns but the micromanipulator does not move. For use on either<br />
115/230 VAC, 50/60 Hz.<br />
3-Direction Joystick Control Unit<br />
This control unit permits control of movement in three directions<br />
simultaneously. The speed and direction of forward or backward<br />
movement is regulated by the degree of displacement of the joystick from<br />
the central null position. The third axis of simultaneous movement is<br />
obtained by rotating the joystick handle. For use on either 115/230 VAC,<br />
50/60 Hz. Supplied with a screened cable.<br />
