The Newport ESA-CX is a three-axis motion controller engineered for high-precision positioning of UDrive direct-drive rotary stages and compatible ESA Series actuators. The system delivers sub-micron accuracy through independent voltage control across X, Y, and Z axes, with output ranging from 10 V DC to 160 V DC per channel at maximum 2.2 mA. Front-panel potentiometers provide manual adjustment, while a 3.5-digit LCD displays real-time voltage monitoring. IEEE-488.1 and IEEE-488.2 compliant interfaces enable integration into automated test and research systems. ESP technology support ensures plug-and-play compatibility with Newport stages, automatically recognizing and uploading operating parameters.
