6D planar motion stages, phase 1

随着装配线、生产和实验室工作不断实现自动化，以实现更低的成本和更高的效率，世界各地的数百家公司正在安装机器人和复杂的设备，以实现流程的自动化。其中许多过程涉及将对象(如工具、组件或流体)从一个位置移动到另一个位置。我们的机会是为电子和医疗设备、制造和生命科学市场创造世界上最好的高分辨率6D运动舞台。基于我们的专利平面电机技术(该技术的视频可在http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-r4Tv7GbB8o)，上观看)，我们计划开发一种具有两个并行工作平台的全功能平面运动系统，用于工业自动化应用。这项技术具有高速、高加速、六自由度运动控制、零摩擦、真空兼容性和低成本等特点，可为半导体、制药、医疗器械和光纤等高附加值产品制造的广泛市场提供显著的生产率、质量和灵活性优势。

As assembly lines, production, and laboratory work is relentlessly automated in a continuous drive for lower cost and higher efficiency, hundreds of companies around the world are installing robotic and complex equipment to automate processes. Many of these processes involve moving an object, such as a tool, component, or a fluid, from one location to another. Our opportunity is to create the world's best high resolution, 6D motion stage for the electronics and medical devices, manufacturing, and life sciences markets. Based on our patented planar motor technology (a video for this technology can be accessed at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-r4Tv7GbB8o), we propose to develop a fully functional planar motion system with two concurrently working stages for industrial automation applications. Capable of high speed, high acceleration, 6 degree-of-freedom motion control, zero friction, vacuum compatibility, and at low cost, this technology can provide significant productivity, quality, and flexibility benefits to a wide range of markets for manufacturing high value-added products, such as semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and fiber optics.
