A new series dovetail stages incorporates precision preloaded dovetail slides with an 80 TPI drive screw, hex head adjustment for tamper resistance, and an integral locking mechanism

Dovetail stages are preferred for small travel 'set, lock, and forget' applications.

They are much less susceptible to shock and vibration than bearing stages.

Newport's new DS series dovetail stages incorporate precision preloaded dovetail slides with an 80 TPI drive screw for precision positioning, hex head adjustment for tamper resistance, and an integral locking mechanism for high stability.

The compact size and critical features of these stages make them ideal for OEM applications.

The modularity allows reconfiguration for research applications.

Slotted base plates are available for mounting these stages to an optical table hole pattern.
