High Load Capacity Dovetail Stages
• Compact Overall Size for System Integration
• Brass Construction for High Stiffness and Load Capacity
• Compatible with Industry Standards and All TECHSPEC® Stages
TECHSPEC® High Load Capacity Dovetail Stages are a compact, cost-effective solution for linear adjustment
within an optical system. These stages feature high stiffness brass construction and a hex driven movement
allowing for a low profile and compact overall size with high load capacity. The absence of tension springs and
the included external plate lock ensure resistance to vibration and increase stability. TECHSPEC High Load
Capacity Dovetail Stages are ideal for imaging and laser optics systems that require low profile integrated
linear adjustments in demanding environments. These stages feature bolt patterns that are compatible with
all TECHSPEC stages, as well as the industry standard metric and English stages. Note: Bottom Adapter
Plates provide an easy and convenient way of mounting 30mm and 40mm stages to standard breadboards. No
adapter plate is required for 65mm stages which can be mounted directly onto breadboards.

• Compatible with Our TECHSPEC® Manual Translation, Rotation, and Tip-Tilt Stages for
Additional Axis Alignment
• ±12.5mm or ±35mm Travel in Both X and Y for Quick X-Y Positioning
• Universal Bottom Plate for Both English and Metric Breadboard Mounting
TECHSPEC® X-Y Positioning Stages feature a low profile design and two stacked rack and pinion movements
to allow for travel in both X and Y axes. English or Metric top plates are sold separately from the rack and
pinion mechanisms. TECHSPEC® X-Y Positioning Stages come in two sizes, 125mm x 125mm and 65mm x
65mm, to accommodate a range of benchtop translation applications. The English top plates are compatible
with our TECHSPEC English Manual Translation Stages, while the Metric top plates are compatible with our
TECHSPEC® Metric Manual Translation Stages. The Rack & Pinion Drive Mechanisms come with a black
anodized bottom plate featuring a universal hole pattern, which allows it to mount to both English and Metric
standard breadboards directly without using additional adapter plates. TECHSPEC® X-Y Positioning Stages are
ideal for quick X-Y positioning applications.
