Title
Zaber Technologies Inc. - Linear Actuator and Stepper Motor Control Specialists
Description
Zaber Technologies Inc. was founded in 1997 by a group of engineers with diverse interests and knowledge of electro-mechanical systems, programming, and physics. Back then, precision linear actuators were all DC motor driven with gearboxes and encoders, requiring complicated motion control cards, bulky controllers, and separate drivers, amplifiers and power supplies. Precision motion control was expensive, difficult to set up, and cumbersome to use.
Recognizing the demand for an inexpensive, integrated solution, Zaber Technologies introduced the world's first precision linear actuator based on a stepper motor drive system with all control and drive electronics integrated into a single small package. Further innovations include the ability to control the devices directly through the ubiquitous RS232 serial port, and to daisy-chain up to 250 devices without installing any additional hardware. A built-in knob on each device allows the user to manually adjust each actuator, while monitoring its position in real-time on a computer. Powered directly off inexpensive wall-adaptors, Zaber's products drastically reduce cable clutter. In addition, Zaber's advanced motion control algorithm outperforms most industrial controllers. Since the introduction of Zaber's first linear actuator, the T-LA28, the T-Series product line has grown to over 165 products, with distributors in 8 countries.
We design and manufacture all of our products in-house, from the built-in controller PCB and electronics, to the firmware and precision mechanical design. We continuously improve our products and documentation based on user feedback. We have the shortest lead time in the industry, a one year warranty, and real people (applications engineers) answering the phone. Researchers, engineers, and OEM customers have come to appreciate the innovative products and excellent support Zaber provides, and have helped us achieve nine consecutive years of continuous growth.
