Backlash for manual X-Axis stage

The manual X-axis stage (BSS16-40C) is used to adjust the camera position.
I'm adjusting it while looking at the image, but I feel that there is a large backlash.

Mounting an object with a rough surface or attaching it to a surface with a rough surface may deform
the stage surface and affect the accuracy. (The standard of flatness is within 10μm.)
Please check the flatness of the object and the mounting location.

Reverse movement of carriage by turning micrometer

We are using manual X axis stage (BSS16-40C).
There was no problem with the direction of moving forward, but it does not return even if we turn
the micrometer to the opposite direction.

It has a mechanism to return by coil spring. Please check if the clamp screw is left tightened.

Movement of carriage by turning micrometer after clamping

The carriage make a move by turning micrometer after clamping. Will it be a defective product?

Even if the clamp is tightened, the stage will move if you turn the micrometer.
If you want to improve the holding power, we have an opposing clamp option.
However, some products do not have the opposing clamp option. Please check the option code
for details on each product page of the catalog.

Manual stage does not move even if the micrometer is turned

The manual stage does not move even when the micrometer or feed screw is turned.

Please check if the clamp screw is left tightened.
