  • What is a Boomerax Multiaxis Manipulator?

    The Boomerax XYZR System is a high-precision, multi-axis translation stage designed for ultra-high vacuum (UHV) applications, offering exceptional stability, accuracy, and adaptability. This fully customizable UHV manipulation system integrates X, Y, and Z translation, along with rotation, into a compact and rigid assembly, ensuring smooth, backlash-free movement with optimal alignment.

    Typical Applications

    Ferrovac Boomerax manipulators are available in various configurations to meet a wide range of applications, such as:

    • Automated Systems: Fully automated, highly precise sample exchange systems with multiple positioning axis.
    • Cryogenic Sample Stages: Used in combination with LN2 cryostat inserts, incredible cryogenic, mobile sample stages are possible.
    • Focal Point Positioning: Precise adjustement and positioning of sample stages and experiment focal points.
    • And much more…

    Viewing enlarged image:

    Base Flange:

    The base flange size determines the mounting flange size (DN40CFT, DN63CFT, DN100CFT). The larger this flange size, the larger the insert diameter can be.

    Travel Flange:

    The travel flange can be adjusted with modular optional components to fit the chosen rotary feedthrough or insert flange.

    Lateral XY travel [mm]:

    The lateral travel range of the XY-Stage is usually +/- 12.5mm.
    XY-Stages with a DN100CF flange size can allow for lateral travel range of +/- 25mm.
    Larger travel ranges limit the size of the insert diameter.

    Linear Travel [mm]:

    The maximum travel distance of the manipulator. The overall length of the assembly is larger than this value, as travel flange moves along the spindle and compresses the bellows unit.
    This must be taken into account when designing the length of the insert arm.
