Project: DEIMOS
Stage: Grating stage clamp
ID #: KDGS-002A
Engineer: J. Osborne

Mechanical Description of Stage: This stage is an integral part of the Grating Slide Stage (KDGS-001A) but complex enough to call it a stage.  It takes a rotator and clamps it to the support structure. All work air cylinder mechanisms.

Electronic Description of Stage:

Required setting accuracy :

1. Speed, temperature, accuracies, electrical power, pressurized air, lubricant, coolant, N2 purge, ...                               Air pressure = 100PSI
2. Primary (inner) and secondary (outer) limits. These can be magnetic, optical, or physical contact

1. Uphill defined as motor (or driven end of shaft) in lowest position

** Very important! Very difficult to achieve goals here.

1. "Coarse" if from optical interrupter, "Fine" if from an encoder index pulse. Home is defined as zero counts.
2. Primary limits signal the controller to stop motion. Secondary limits cut motor power and require intervention to move out of them.

Sign conventions are such that a positive motion of the motor turns the motor in a CW direction as viewed from the drive shaft looking back into the motor, and will the drive the stage towards the forward limit.
