Motionlink Ltd offers a wide range of flexible and proven motion and position control components and positioning systems – for application in all markets where automation of motion control is required.

Our wide range of components and systems for the precise control of motion and positioning includes:

• Intelligent motion controllers for the control of servo and stepping motors from PC, ethernet, USB and RS232 bus formats.
• Linear, vertical lift and rotary stages, and stages for vacuum and clean-room applications.
• Custom-design positioning systems to suit customer specifications, with all fixturing and handling where required.
• Encoders, including rotary and linear models.
• A wide range of world-class servo amplifiers with Ethercat, CAN, USB interfaces for brushed, rotary and linear brushless servo motors.

We offer a motion-system design consultancy, based on many years of practical experience in the design and manufacture of dedicated custom motion systems – to perform positioning tasks as diverse as applications with nanometre accuracy in optical industries and NDT measurement systems spanning metres.
