Patent ID: 10353297

Abstract:
A motion stage device, an exposure device and a lithography machine are disclosed. The motion stage device includes: Y-direction motors (203), a mover of each Y-direction motor (203) movable in a horizontal Y-direction; X-direction motors provided on X-direction guide rails (105), the X-direction guide rails (105) is in connection with the movers of the Y-direction motors (203) and movable in the horizontal Y-direction under actuation of the Y-direction motors (203), the X-direction motors having movers (107b) movable in a horizontal X-direction; an inner frame (102), supporting the X-direction guide rails (105); and a motion stage (108, 106), disposed on the movers (107b) of the X-direction motor. This motion stage device possesses improved modal and vibration characteristics because of a reduced load on the Y-direction motors (203). Additionally, the X-direction guide rails (105) are in non-contact connection with the inner frame (102) and thus will not pose significant vibration-causing impacts on the inner frame (102). This allows stable movement and improved control accuracy.
