CVCA - Cryogenic Voice-Coil Actuator CVCA1
The cryogenic voice coil actuator (CVCA) is an electromagnetic linear force actuator for cryogenic operation. Its fully welded titanium-alloy structure incorporates electrical feedthrough pins and seals the coil for UHV compatibility. Noncontact voice coil operation is particularly suitable for smooth, precise positioning throughout the travel range and long-service-life applications such as wafer probing.
