Precision Rotary (FPRM Series)

Precision Rotary Feedthroughs

Precision rotary feedthroughs are commonly used to define a polar axis for a sample or probe where precision angular orientation is needed.  They provide 360° continuous rotation and are mounted on top of XYZ manipulators and other stages to provide polar axis freedom.   Available with custom probe lengths and field-mountable probe extensions for your specific application.
