SPECIFICATIONS FOR
DYNAMIC METROLOGY APPLICATIONS
Different considerations when
determining which actuator technology to use.
Throughout the world, various types of metrology applications share a common need for increased precision. Metrology is the scientific study of measurement. Metrology applications take some type of measurement to collect certain data. Markets such as life science, semiconductor, and electronics manufacturing rely on metrology instrumentation to ensure their process is completed correctly. The need for precision is further underscored when you realize the samples/products can be extremely small (i.e. human cell) as well as highly sensitive (i.e. touch-screen electronics). Having high precision motion technology is key to ensure the application will be completed successfully.
This whitepaper, co-written by Parker's Brian Handerhan and Patrick Lehr, goes into detail on the demands of dynamic metrology applications as they apply to the selection of precision linear motion control components and systems. In addition, the relevance of Moore's Law is examined in the context of the industry.
