Zaber designs and manufactures precision positioning devices that are affordable, integrated, and easy to use. Their devices are used in many different applications and markets, such as photonics and optics, life sciences, microscopy, and industrial automation.
Zaber was founded in 1997 and released the world’s first precision linear actuator with a built-in controller, the T-LA28 Series linear actuator. Based on a stepper motor instead of a combination of DC motor, gearbox, and encoder, the T-LA28 was the first device to feature all control and drive electronics in one compact package. The integration of all control and drive electronics in the same package became the foundation of Zaber’s T-, A- and, later X-Series product lines.
