x-y table with motor control

[Rick B.]

Hello all,

Has anyone come across a decent off the shelf x-y table that can be
position controlled using labview ?

It does not need to be extremely precise, I would just like to be able
to move different quadrants of a circuit board into position for
viewing with a CCD. I cannot currently get the entire board in my FOV
with any reasonable resolution so would like to be able to break up
the board into segments.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Have a great weekend.

One approach to take would be to get a system with a motor control box that has an rs232 interface. That way motor move commands can be sent via the serial interface under control of labview.

Hope that's of some help.

Rick,

You can check our Motion Control 3rd Party Resources to see if any of our Partners do have a XY stage or table to fit your needs.

Good luck!

Nestor.
