Wobble Stick (Wobblestick)
Wobble Stick (Wobblestick)
Magnetically driven wobblestick manipulators from Ferrovac define the benchmark for delicate and precise manipulations in ultra-high vacuum systems.
-
Motion Stability: Due to the principle of magnetic force coupling, the motion of the shaft is not affected by the difference between atmospheric pressure and ultra-high vacuum. This allows the operator to guide the shaft of the wobble stick nearly force-free in a smooth and controlled way.
-
Leak Prevention: Magnetic coupling minimizes the risk for leaks and ensures longer lifetimes compared to conventional wobble sticks employed with long bellows stacks for linear motion.
-
Continuous Rotation: Magnetically driven wobble stick manipulators always allow for continuous rotation of the shaft.
