X-Axis Motorized Positioning Stages (C-XMBS420-L-A-2)



Product Overview of X-Axis stage

MISUMI C-XMBS series motorized X-Axis stage is an economy series X-Axis stage equipped with a two-phase stepper motor. It can be used as a X-Axis stage to adjust the position of automation equipment. Its main body is madeof quenched stainless steel (equivalent to SUS440C), which is treated with chemical nickel plating, thereby achieving high rigidity and strong anti-rust performance. An integrated linear ball guide is adopted as the guiding mechanism toprovide the required accuracy. The price has been substantially reduced by streamlining the structure and improving the process.

Product Feature of X-Axis stage

Feature 1. Low price is achieved by streamlining the structure and improving the process.
Feature 2. Strokes from 18 mm to 43 mm are made available by rearranging steel balls, extending lower seats, etc.
Feature 3. The 80 series motorized X-Axis stage has its sensor built-in to save space.
Feature 4: Quick disassembling is achieved by adding positioning holes to the upper and lower seats of the stage.
Feature 5. The positioning holes for 40/60/80 series have common diameters and positions, enabling a diversified combination of X-Axis stages with different dimensions.
Feature 6. The voltage of the limit sensor/driver has been expanded to 32 V, reducing burnout and other failures due to unstable voltage.

■ Movement
It refers to the distance that the X-Axis stage surface can move. (On each product page, illustration is made in the stroke center.)

■ Load capacity
It refers to the value of capacity that can be driven at the maximum speed with the maximum load that can be applied in the center of the X-Axis stage surface.

■ One-way positioning accuracy
It refers to the maximum difference between the measured distance (from the reference point to the position actually moved to) and the theoretical distance (from the reference point to the position that should be moved to as instructed)of each positioning point, which is measured and calculated within the full stroke after positioning is carried out in one direction at a certain interval from the reference point (the end of the stroke).

■ Repetitive positioning accuracy
Repeat positioning at the same point from the same direction 7 times, measure the offset of the stop position, and then calculate 1/2 of the maximum difference of this offset. Repeat this operation at 3 points between the center and bothends of the stroke, and define the maximum calculation value as the repetitive positioning accuracy.

Usage Method of X-Axis stage

The C-XMBS series X-Axis stage has been equipped with the two-phase stepper motor, MISUMI two-phase stepper motor driver (C-DR42A) and 2 m cable. Customers only need to prepare the 24 V power supply and host computer (PLC or motioncontrol card) to use it. The example of connection among various products is shown in the figure below.

Precautions of X-Axis stage

■ X-Axis stage operating environment
Operating environment: 10~50℃, 20~70% RH (without condensation)
Recommended operating environment: 22±5℃, 20~70%RH (without condensation)
Please avoid using this X-Axis stage in the following environments
① Dusty environment (especially metal powder)
② Environment with direct sunlight and thermal radiation
③ Environment near fire sources
④ Environment containing corrosive gases and flammable gases
⑤ Environment with splashing water and oil
⑥ Environment with strong vibration and impact
⑦ Environment containing organic solutions and salt

■X-Axis stage maintenance
A uniform maintenance standard is not available, and the maintenance method is subject to the type of grease and operating environment. Based on the driving conditions and guide types, make sure to check the grease once a month.

■ About wiring
The motors and sensors of this product are wired externally with cables and connectors. If the cable on the X-Axis stage side is frequently bent, it may cause the cable tie to break, and thus cause loosening of the motor terminal andsensor terminal, resulting in poor contact or core wire breakage. It is recommended to fix the connector on the X-Axis stage side during wiring.

Frequently asked question (FAQ)

Question: Can MISUMI motorized positioning stage be used directly after the purchase? What other accessories are needed for the actual drive?
Answer: In addition to purchasing MISUMI automatic positioning stage (including the motor driver and 2m cable), the customer also needs to prepare 24V power supply and control unit by himself.
Question: Why does my positioning stage only run in one direction?
Answer: 1. Maybe the directional signal is too weak, or the wiring is reversed, or the signal voltage is too high causing burnout of the internal current limiting resistor.
2. The pulse mode does not match. The signal mode must be consistent with the driver settings, otherwise the positioning stage will not rotate or will only run in one direction.
Question: What is the accuracy of the stepper motor? Is it cumulative?
Answer: Generally, the accuracy of the stepper motor is 3 to 5% of the step angle. The single step deviation of the stepper motor will not affect the accuracy of the next step, so the accuracy of the stepper motor is not accumulated.
Question: What is the allowable exterior temperature of the stepper motor?
Answer: Too high temperature of the stepper motor will first demagnetize the magnetic material of the motor, resulting in torque decrease or even loss. Therefore, the maximum allowable temperature of the motor exterior should depend on the demagnetization point of different motor magnetic materials. Generally speaking, the demagnetization point of magnetic materials is above 130℃, so it is completely normal for the exterior temperature of the stepper motor to be around 80℃.
