2020-01-27 VULCANO2: new modular standard family

The VULCANO2 is a new mechanical bearing stacked-axes architecture. It is a based solution allowing the users to reach higher throughput, duty cycles or to serve heavier payloads with no loss of repeatability or of accuracy. The standardized product are shaped with XY and XYT configurations which, thanks to footprint, allow easier drop-in solutions to equipment with lower dynamics stages. Go to press info
