ORLIN Technologies has sourced the most innovative products from
the world's leading manufacturers in their respective fields and
brought them to the UK market. Our speciality is precision motion
and associated technologies and we provide full technical sales
support for all of our range.

SMAC
moving coil (or voice coil) actuators and stages
These can be thought of as miniature linear motors with all of
the advantages in dynamic performance and accuracy that entails.
Their non-cogging, direct-drive motors are completely free from
backlash and also have the unique inherent feature that force
can be accurately monitored and controlled by software. This allows
a host of applications that are simply not possible with other
devices.
SMAC actuators neatly fill a gap in the micro-positioning market
between piezo actuators and conventional ballscrew stages. They
are available with single or multiple linear axes and linear/rotary
options.
Piezo
actuators and mechanisms from CEDRAT Technologies
Piezo actuators are well known in the nano-positioning world,
but the units from CEDRAT offer some unique advantages over conventional
devices offered by competitors, such as much larger displacements
per unit length, and the highest mechanical energy density per
unit volume and mass on the market.
Proven in the hostile environment of space, CEDRAT piezo actuators
are ideally suited to highly dynamic postioning applications and
active control of structural vibrations.
The SQUIGGLE motor is a revolutionary linear motor that sets
a new benchmark for small size and high performance. The patented
ultrasonic motor creates high force and speed with only a few
parts. It replaces complex electromagnetic gearhead motors which
have hundreds of parts.
This simple, robust piezo motor is scalable to much smaller sizes
than electromagnetic motors, without significant loss of power
efficiency. This makes it ideal for portable consumer products
such as mobile phone cameras and wearable medical devices.
An extensive range of high quality manual stages with single
or multiple axis combinations. We are confident that you will
not find the same specification elsewhere at a lower price.
Op Mount manufacture an equally extensive range of motorised
stages with the same high quality and low cost. We can offer a
choice of motor/controller combinations to ensure that the right
price/performance ratio is achieved for your application.
We also have motorised actuators (either stepper, SQUIGGLE or
voice coil) which can directly replace micrometers in manual stages
to provide an automated positioning solution.
Vibration
isolation systems from Minus K Technology
Continuing ORLIN's tradition of offering the most innovative
products, Minus K vibration isolation systems out perform conventional
air tables by a factor of 10 to 100 without the need for compressed
air or electricity supply. This greatly simplifies installation
and minimises running costs. It also means that you do not need
to have a noisy compressor or bulky gas bottle next to your sensistive
equipment!
