DART DM3-L Available for Pre-Order Prototyping for High-Volume Applications

New Scale Technologies announces the introduction of the DART™ Smart Linear Actuators and Stages. Specifications and samples are now available at newscaletech.com/dart-linear-actuator/. The DART line is designed to meet the needs of photonic instruments, UAS imaging, and life science companies looking for smart motion solutions with longer travel and lower cost for high-volume applications.

The DART Smart Linear Actuator builds on New Scale’s proprietary SQUIGGLE® technology, offering a greater range of motion and higher force. DART is well-suited to applications like microscope lens positioning, drone gimbal imaging, and diagnostic instrument sample scanning, offering:

  • Smallest size, weight, and power. (SWaP)
  • Longer travel range, up to 25mm
  • Higher Push Force, 2 N
  • Optical Precision, 0.5 µm closed loop
  • Higher speeds, 10mm/second
  • Modularity for greater design freedom and compatibility with a variety of motion mechanisms.
  • Shortest integration time. Fastest time to market.
  • Scalability, with capacity and cost suited to high-volume applications

The DART DM3-L/LS product family offers 10x the force and 4x more stroke, at an expected price point of 30% less than competitive available solutions. These all-in-one linear motion systems include the motor, motor driver, linear guide mechanism, position sensor, microprocessor, and embedded firmware. No external controller is required! Also included is New Scale Pathway™ PC software that eases integration and provides access to stage settings, scripted motion commands, diagnostics, and more.

“New Scale works closely with our OEM customers to maximize their products’ performance while reducing engineering costs.  We are proud to introduce the DART line to meet emerging demands in drones, life sciences, and photonics, tailored to their cost and performance targets with easier integration and accelerated development,” said David Henderson, CEO at New Scale.

The DART platform offers a strong ROI for new product managers in UAS systems, microscopy, laser beam positioning, point-of-care diagnostics, and more.
