  • Page 20: Securing The Stage To The Mounting Surface

    If machining is required to achieve the desired flatness, it should be performed on the mounting surface rather than the AMG. Shimming should be avoided if possible. If shimming is required, it should be minimized to retain maximum rigidity of the system. AMG series stages have a fixed mounting pattern (as shown in Figure 2-7).
  • Page 21: Attaching The Payload To The Stage

    N O T E : If your AMG was purchased with Aerotech controls, it might have been tuned with a representative payload based on the information provided at the time of order. If the AMG is started up without a payload, the servo gains provided by Aerotech with the shipment may not be appropriate and servo instability can occur.
