How Zaber got its start


Zaber Technologies was founded in 1997 by a group of friends with diverse interests and knowledge of electromechanical systems, programming, and physics. Back then, precision linear actuators all used DC motors with gearboxes and encoders, and they required complicated motion control cards, bulky controllers, separate driver amplifiers, and special power supplies. Precision motion control was expensive, difficult to set up, and cumbersome to use. Zabers founders recognized the need for an inexpensive, integrated solution for motion control. They wanted to make motion control products that were easy to set up and ready to use right out of the box, so they created the worlds first precision linear actuator with a built-in controller. It was based on a stepper motor instead of a DC motor, gearbox, and encoder combination. The integration of all control and drive electronics in the same package became the foundation of Zabers T-Series product line.

Where we are today


Since the introduction of our first linear actuator, the T-LA28, we have expanded our offerings to include over 100 motion control products distributed worldwide. Researchers, engineers, distributors, system integrators, and OEMs have come to appreciate our innovative products and excellent support. We continue to advance our in-house manufacturing processes allowing us to build, test, and ship most of our products within 35 days.

About Our Products


Built-in controllers simplify your set-up
Weve designed most of our precision positioning equipment with integrated controllers, so theres no additional hardware for you to install. The controller and stepper motor driver are built right in, which reduces cost, device footprint, and cable clutter.

The choice is yours: enjoy complete automation through computer control, or use manual control
Zaber devices are perfect for automating your positioning needs. Our free software allows you to send single commands or complex sequences. Most models offer a manual control knob so that when you want to, you can position your device by hand as well. The speed varies depending on how far you turn the knob in either direction, and the computer will continue to track the devices position throughout a manual move.

Weve got the accessories you need


Most Zaber products use standard 15 V wall-mounted power supplies, and we offer suitable alternatives to match the input voltage in different regions around the world. Kit versions of Zaber products come complete with a power supply, a six-foot cable, and a serial port adaptor. We recommend you start with a kit version, though if you need multiple motion devices for your application, each device can also be purchased without accessories. If you need longer cables, alternate power supplies, or other optional items, we can help you choose the right ones. You can see a list of compatible accessories, including power supply substitutions for each device, on our web site.

Sustainability is important to us
Its important to us to minimize any negative impact we may have on the environment and on the health and safety of our communities. We are continually improving our devices to reduce the use of any hazardous substances, and our products are available in RoHS-compliant versions. The packaging we use is recyclable in most regions. If you have any suggestions for how we can further reduce the environmental impact of our products or activities, we would be happy to hear from you!

SpinX Technologies
www.spinx-technologies.com

The SpinX Lab integrates liquid handling, incubation and detection of nanolitre assays into a bench-top instrument for applications in pre-clinical drug discovery ranging from assay development to compound profiling. Currently, in-house compound profiling is generally limited to a panel of less than a dozen assays in any project, largely because no existing instrument allows a wider panel to be performed in a convenient and cost-effective manner. SpinX Lab enables dozens of compounds to be tested in hundreds of conditions in a single run.

Customer Spotlight

SpinX uses two dovetail motorized slides inside the SpinX Lab instrument, namely for accurate and repeatable positioning of optical elements. The accuracy and repeatability, the compactness, and the competitive pricing of Zabers products were extremely attractive to us for this application. In addition, the integrated stepper motor controller coupled with the relatively simple control using RS-232 made the integration into our device straightforward. SpinX Technologies

T-JOY3 Joystick

At Zaber we often develop products in direct response to customer requests. Our programmable joystick, the T-JOY3, is a classic example. We had been getting a lot of requests for a joystick that could be used for manual control of our products mounted in XY, XYZ, or XY-rotary configurations. Many customers wanted to position something under a microscope or camera: X and Y would adjust the position and Z would adjust the focus or magnification. We had a lot of success in the concept stage so we were able to design, test, and launch the T-JOY3 in a matter of months. I was happy to see the project completed so quickly. I was even happier to see orders start coming in, followed by positive feedback from customers. Andrew Lau, Product Manager, Zaber Technologies

DigitalCameraInfo.com features free, fun, and unbiased reviews to help people decide which digital camera would be best for them. Each DigitalCameraInfo.com review features a standard 44-point analysis that considers the cameras image quality, handling, portability, control, ease of use, and other key areas. DigitalCameraInfo.com uses Zaber devices to test digital camera and camcorders.

Customer Spotlight

To test image stabilization, we use a T-LSR-75A linear slide and a T-RS60 rotary stand, produced by the Canadian company Zaber. We mount the cameras and camcorders on these stands using a standard tripod mount. These devices allow us to apply shake to cameras and camcorders in a precisely controlled way, meaning that we can mimic human hand shake without the unpredictable nature of real humans. We use a custom script to control these devices to produce the required levels of movement to accurately mimic human hand shake.

T-LSR Linear Slide

A lot of people were requesting linear slides with longer travel and higher speed than what we had. In particular, I remember one customer who wanted to position a 20 kg camera to within 0.1 m resolution, and another who wanted to shake a mobile phone at 10 Hz to see how long it would take to fail. There was a real demand to move things faster, and to move things much heavier than a sensor or a petri dish. Many people also wanted to mount their slides in XY or XYZ configurations. These needs formed the basis for the design of our T-LSR series slides. There were some frustrating moments during lifetime testing of the alpha prototype. Some of the initial component choices were inadequate, but after revising the design a few times we finally reached a point where we were really happy with it. Apparently, so are our customers! The T-LSR turned out to be more of a success than any of us expected. Im looking forward to developing the next longer, faster, stronger version. Jesse Schuhlein, Product Manager, Zaber Technologies

My favourite part about working at Zaber is that everyone is very open-minded, supportive, and knowledgeable. I recently completed a Masters of Business Administration (MBA) degree, which frequently required me to do assignments on my workplace. During that time, it was great to be able to approach my colleagues with ideas and questions about the company. Working with people who really supported my decision to further my studies made the whole process a lot easier. Bryan Cassidy, Marketing, Zaber Technologies

Programmable Joystick Controller: T-JOY

Controls up to three axes with programmable sensitivity and velocity profile Compact bench-top design enables human interface with or without a computer Five programmable buttons for functions like store and recall positions
In stand-alone operation, the T-JOY3 is ideal for XY or XYZ applications. The joystick is intuitive to use, and the buttons are pre-programmed with commands to home the devices, save current positions, and go to saved positions. It is ideal for applications where complex computer control is not required. For more sophisticated applications, you can connect the T-JOY3 to your computer so both the computer and the joystick can simultaneously control connected motion devices transparently through the daisy-chain. The joysticks five buttons are fully programmable: send any command to the devices connected by the daisy-chain, or trigger the computer to execute preprogrammed command sequences. The software continuously displays the status of the joystick and the devices attached to it. The entire daisy-chain can be controlled through a single RS-232 port (or USB port with optional adaptor) on a laptop or desktop. One axis is controlled by moving the joystick from left to right, another by moving the joystick from front to back, and a third by rotating the handle. By programming the joystick, you can specify which connected device corresponds to each axis.

Glossary Accuracy
The maximum deviation between the actual position and the instructed position over the full range of travel.

Backlash (Hysteresis)
The change in actual position that results from approaching the target position from the opposite direction.

Resolution
The smallest increment that a motion control device can be instructed to move (one microstep). The actual motion of the device may be different, due to error, backlash, and other mechanical characteristics.
