Stacking Stages
This appendix provides information about center-stacked stage configurations.
Stage Stacking Certain combinations of MPAS linear stages are designed to be stacked on top of
one another. Stacking forms an X-Y axis arrangement. A center-stack
arrangement mounts the top axis in the middle of the bottom axis. The top stage
is centered on the bottom stage.
