Upgrade your existing Modular Test Stand (MTS) Base Module to a Motorized version. The programmable, motorized lifting column and rail system along the optical axis enable more efficient lab testing. Add a motorized Z-stage (along the optical axis) for positioning the camera post, YZ-stages which adds an automated lifting column, or XYZ-stages which includes lateral camera translation for a fully automated MTS fixture.

Easily create automated test plans with many camera-to-chart test distances and perform live depth of field tests using a computer controlled stage with precise linear movements.
