1000um travel range is achieved with a new friction-free and extremely stiff flexure system, for rapid response and excellent guiding accuracy with trajectory precision in the low-nanometer range
PI (Physik Instrumente), a manufacturer of nanopositioning and precision motion-control equipment for bio/nanotechnology, photonics, semiconductor and life science applications, offers the new closed-loop P-628.2CD XY piezoelectric stages.
These precision flexure-guided scanning stages provide a record travel range of 1000um and allow nanometrology/precision microscopy instrument designers to probe much larger areas than before.
A lower cost, single axis version is also offered.
Typical applications: scanning probe microscopy, nanometrology, biotechnology, interferometry, nanopositioning, quality assurance, semiconductor technology.
Record travel range of 1000um, yet very stiff and precise.
The long travel range is achieved with a newly designed, friction-free and extremely stiff flexure system, which also offers rapid response and excellent guiding accuracy with trajectory precision in the low-nanometer range.
High acceleration forces are provided by multiple, newly-developed high-force multilayer piezo stack actuators.
Controllers: high speed, digital control.
A variety of ultra-low-noise 32-bit digital controllers provide fast communications and come with a wide selection of software tools.
