Research Abstract

In this study, to realize a sub-nano positioning system with a long stroke the ideal structure of the positioning system was investigated. All components of the positioning system were designed and determined to eliminate their error factors. Actual experimental results confirmed that the newly developed positioning table system has a sub-nano meter positioning resolution in a wide travel range.
