## Overview

AML ultra high vacuum compatible goniometer stage with ±15° travel, provides rotation on a transverse axis above the table.

Can be used standalone or as part of a complex motion system when combined with other VSM17 modular stages. It is possible to build a Euler gonimeter with a common centre of rotation when VSM17-G-070 and VSM17-G-114 stages are combined.

The VSM17-G features rigid construction to allow for high load capacity whilst maintaining smooth motion through the full range of travel. They are manufactured with UHV compatible material and construction methods and utilise AML UHV stepper motors.

- ±15° of travel

- 0.005° resolution

- Suitable for use to 1 x 10-10 mBar

- Bakeable to 200 °C
