Applications
Linear positioning slides like this Automation Gages unit are used wherever precise, repeatable one-axis linear motion is needed in a controlled setting. Common applications include optical bench setups, metrology and inspection fixtures, semiconductor and PCB assembly tooling, laser alignment stages, and general industrial automation where a carriage must be positioned along a fixed axis. Automation Gages Inc. built slides and gauging components primarily for precision manufacturing and quality control environments, and this style of manual slide is still actively used in toolrooms, machine shops, and laboratory workstations. It can serve as a standalone manual positioning stage or as a base component in a multi-axis XY or XYZ stage assembly when combined with additional slides. The tapped carriage plate makes it straightforward to attach fixtures, sensors, optics mounts, or other tooling.
This Automation Gages AG Linear Positioning Slide has been inspected and pulled from a working environment where it was previously in use. The carriage top plate shows notable surface rust and oxidation spotting across much of its face — clearly visible in the photos. The anodized aluminum base body is intact with no cracks or structural damage. It has not been powered up or bench-tested at our facility (this is a manual mechanical slide). Please review our full photo set closely — particularly the carriage surface condition — and contact us with any questions before purchasing.
