Ⅰ. Product Overview
The PFG4000 Hollow Single Axis Gantry Stage from W-Robot is a next-generation precision motion platform engineered for high-speed, long-stroke, and ultra-stable positioning. Designed with a hollow-core structure, it enables easy routing of cables, optics, or vacuum lines through the center of the stage — a feature that simplifies integration in semiconductor, laser processing, and optical inspection systems.
With its dual linear motor drive and high-resolution linear encoder, the PFG4000 delivers zero-backlash motion, high acceleration, and sub-micron positioning accuracy. The rigid aluminum base ensures structural stability, while optional air-bearing or precision linear guides provide smooth, friction-free travel.
This gantry stage represents the ideal solution for applications requiring large travel ranges, high dynamic response, and long-term reliability under continuous operation.
Ⅱ. Technical Features
Hollow-core structure: Supports optical paths, cable harnesses, and vacuum lines through the central axis.
Dual linear motor drive: Provides synchronized high-speed motion and powerful thrust output.
High-precision linear encoder: Ensures sub-micron level accuracy and repeatability.
Rigid aluminum base: Guarantees excellent flatness and low vibration during operation.
Optional air-bearing or linear guide system: Enables frictionless movement for ultra-smooth performance.
Customizable stroke: Available for long travel lengths exceeding 1000 mm upon request.
Low maintenance design: Non-contact drive and feedback ensure extended service life.
Ⅲ. Application Fields
The PFG4000 Hollow Single Axis Gantry Stage is ideal for precision manufacturing and scientific research environments such as:
Semiconductor wafer inspection and exposure systems
Laser cutting, engraving, and micro-machining
Optical alignment, testing, and calibration platforms
Precision metrology and measurement instruments
Advanced automation and robotic gantry systems
Ⅳ. Model Selection & Customization
W-Robot provides tailored customization options to match your integration and performance needs:
Travel range and stroke customization for specific system layouts
Load and acceleration optimization for heavy or high-speed motion
Compatibility with multiple motor types (servo, linear, or torque motors)
Encoder resolution upgrades for nanometer-level precision
Configurable structural stiffness and damping for vibration-sensitive applications
Multi-axis expansion (XY, XYZ, or gantry combinations)
CAD models, technical drawings, and motion control interfaces are available upon request for system designers.

Ⅴ. Product Advantages
Large travel range with superior dynamic stability
Hollow-core design simplifies integration of optical or pneumatic systems
