Term Explanation
Load capacity Maximum load capacity in the vertical direction when the
rotation stage is mounted horizontally. The contact point of the
load is in the center of the platform.
Incremental position
sensor Sensor (encoder) for capturing changes of position or changes of angle. Signals from the incremental position sensor are
used for axis position feedback. After switching on the
controller a reference point definition must be performed
before absolute target positions can be commanded and
reached.
1.4 Figures
For better understandability, the colors, proportions and degree of detail in illustrations
can deviate from the actual circumstances. Photographic illustrations may also differ
and must not be seen as guaranteed properties.

2.1 Intended Use
The M-06x is a laboratory device as defined by DIN EN 61010. It is intended for indoor
use and use in an environment that is free of dirt, oil and lubricants.
In accordance with its design and realization, the M-06x is intended for single-axis
positioning, adjusting and shifting of loads at different velocities. The M-06x is not
intended for applications in areas in which a failure would present severe risks to
human beings or the environment.
The M-06x is intended for horizontal or vertical mounting. For the load limits with
vertical mounting, see "General Notes on Installation" (p. 19).
The intended use of the M-06x is only possible when completely mounted and
connected.
The M-06x must be operated with a suitable controller (p. 14). The controller is not
included in the scope of delivery of the M-06x.
2.2 General Safety Instructions
The M-06x is built according to state-of-the-art technology and recognized safety
standards. Improper use can result in personal injury and/or damage to the M-06x.
Only use the M-06x for its intended purpose, and only use it if it is in a good
working order.
Read the user manual.
Immediately eliminate any faults and malfunctions that are likely to affect
safety.
The operator is responsible for the correct installation and operation of the M-06x.

3.6 Technical Features
3.6.1 Encoder
The models are equipped with an incremental rotary encoder. For the encoder
resolution, refer to the table in the "Specifications" section (p. 39).
A rotary encoder is implemented at a rotating point in the drivetrain, e.g. the motor
shaft.
3.6.2 Reference Point Switch
The models are equipped with a direction-sensing reference point switch (see
"Reference Point Switch Specifications" (p. 41)).
The commands that use the reference signal are described in the user manual of the
controller and/or in the corresponding software manuals.

3 Product Description
M-06x Rotation Stage MP47E Version: 2.1 15
After a reference move of the M-06x, the 0° mark on the scale ring of the moving
platform is above the 0° mark in the base body.
3.6.3 Integrated PWM Amplifier
The M-06x.PD models with direct drive are equipped with a PWM amplifier
("ActiveDrive concept"). The PWM amplifier only receives the control signals from the
controller, whereas the supply voltage is provided via an external power supply. The
ActiveDrive concept allows high motor power and dynamics at low power loss.

4 Unpacking
