Description
The Linear Shift with Tilt is a UHV transfer mechanisms in which the top flange moves towards or away from the bottom flange, maintaining parallelism with possibility to tilt the free one flange. It is made up of a pair of flanges connected by bellows, in which the free one moves towards the fixed on in a controlled, precise motion. Its action is similar to the Standard Linear Shift, but its free one flange can be tilted. The standard mounting flange is DN 40CF. The shift is actuated by a handwheel and can work in any orientation.
Application
The Linear Shifts with Tilt are used in applications not needing the higher precision and graduated movement of other linear motion devices and can be used for:
- Manipulation of surface science tools with respect to a sample's position
- Manipulation of evaporation and sputter sources
- Manipulation of electron and x-ray sources
- Manipulation of quartz oscillators
- Sample transfer applications
Additional information
Linear Shifts with tilt are designed for the linear movement of instruments tilt or wobble in the movement and allowing precision alignment before and after pump-down.
