Linear transfer arm
The LPP, XLPP & SLPP range
These high-performance magnetically-coupled linear devices are designed for sample transfer. More specifically, where only linear motion is required and rotation is undesirable.
They are available in standard stroke lengths from 304mm to 1524mm, with motorisation options of up to 100mm/s transfer speed. The manual version of the LPP is bakeable to 250°C without removing any components.
For demanding UHV applications, we recommend the XLPP option with rolling metal & ceramic bearings. This will ensure smooth, low friction actuation with minimal outgassing.
For higher load applications we recommend the SLPP with the larger 31.7mm diameter shaft. This includes a CF63 mounting flange as standard, with a maximum cantilevered load of 50Nm.
Key Specifications
