Linear motion positioning applications can often be addressed with a single-axis linear stage consisting of a moving rail, a fixed base, a carrier plate, and a linear actuator. However, a sizable number of applications require linear motion on multiple axes. For position control in more than one direction, the use of two-axis XY linear stage, or three-axis XYZ linear stage is required.

In its simplest form, an XY linear stage is created by precisely joining two single-axis stages. Mounted perpendicular to one another, the top of the lower axis serves as the upper axis base. The three-axis XYZ stage adds a third dimension of travel using the same technique. In each individual stage, a hybrid stepper motor linear actuator is combined with a precision lead screw or ball screw and nut to move the carriage to a precise destination point in the linear motion system. A multi-axis linear stage allows precise, highly accurate, repeatable motion within small design envelopes.
