Integrated cable management system (CMS)
shortens your machine build
3-axis load up to 25 kg for demanding
applications
Customizable Z and/or axis for easy
integration of any process equipment
Teach mode with Aerotech controllers for fast
deployment
Cartesius, Aerotechs industrial strength Cartesian robot, is
built on the Aerotech Producer Series linear stages and is
ideal for many automation applications including pick and
place, assembly, test and inspection, dispensing stations,
and many more.
Customer cabling and pneumatics can be routed through the
CMS system. Connectors are provided at the workpiece and
at the base, greatly simplifying final machine integration.
Rugged Construction
Cartesius configurations include left or right handed XY,
XYZ, and XZ systems. Stages can be side or base mounted
and the Z axis can be base or carriage mounted. An optional
rotary axis can be mounted to the Z. The integrated cable
management is connectorized for easy disconnect for
customer cables and air lines. All stages have
environmental protection, servomotors with encoders,
integral limits, and multiple ball-screw leads providing a
wide range of speeds and resolutions.
Cartesius is configured with Aerotechs Producer Series
stages: PRO115SL, PRO165Sl, and PRO225SL. These
precision ball-screw stages are driven with brushless
servomotors with encoders for position feedback. The
stages are designed with hard covers and side-seals for
protection from debris. The robust aluminum cover is hardcoated to provide a scratch resistant surface. The side seals
keep dirt and particulates out of the stage and protect the
bearing surfaces and ball screw from contamination. The
vertical orientation of the seals easily deflects debris away
from the stage.
Cable Management System
NEMA Flange-Mount
Aerotechs extensive design experience with 24/7
production equipment has resulted in an optimized CMS
that is field proven to be the industrys most reliable design.
Large bend radii and high-flex cables ensure that the
Cartesius CMS provides millions of cycles of maintenancefree operation. In the unlikely event of a component failure,
the modular design ensures that part replacement is fast and
easy.
All stages have a NEMA flange-mounting interface for
attachment of a wide variety of Aerotech and third-party
motors. Aerotech can provide brush, brushless, and stepper
motors preconfigured and mounted directly to the stage for
integration with Aerotech controls. Or the stage can be
purchased without the motor and cable management for the
attachment of third-party motors.

Cartesius DESCRIPTION/SPECIFICATIONS
Aerotechs BMS series brushless, slotless servomotor with
standard TTL encoder output provides a resolution of 0.5 to
2.5 micron. An optional analog output encoder can be
coupled with external interpolation electronics to provide
higher resolution (up to 5 nanometers). A holding brake can
be added to the vertical axis motor, and a motor fold-back
kit is available for space-constrained applications to reduce
the overall stage length.
Turnkey Operation
Leverage our years of experience manufacturing precision
positioning and control systems by selecting a turnkey
system-level option. Typical options include Z-theta
mechanisms, risers to accommodate automated parts
handling equipment, and machine bases designed to
accommodate the entire electronics subsystem. Aerotech
also manufactures a wide range of high-performance
amplifiers and advanced motion controllers optimized for
automation applications.
Gantry Robots
If a gantry-style robot is required for your application, refer
to Aerotechs extensive gantry offerings. Aerotech gantry
systems use our own brushless linear servomotors with high
accuracy linear encoders. Aerotech gantries are deployed
worldwide in numerous 24/7 industrial automation
applications including assembly, pick & place, stencil
cutting, fuel cell manufacturing, sensor testing, and more.
