Motorized microscope stage

Miniaturized ceramic linear drives from Physik Instrumente (PI) L.P. work with the M-687 motorized microscope XY stage for inverted microscopes.

• Complete system includes a controller, joystick, and software; self-clamping ceramic/ceramic linear motors in the positioner are more compact than electromagnetic motors and provide higher positional stability — once in place, no energy is consumed to hold position (no heat dissipation) • Integrated, 100-nm resolution linear encoders provide direct position feedback to the controller, allowing closed-loop operation with high accuracy • Constant velocity down to 10 microns/sec; travel to 135 × 85 mm; suitable for long exposure imaging, image stitching • Speeds to 120 mm/sec; allows for free rotation of the turret for inverted microscopes
