Nano-positioning stages are piezo-driven

The P-628 series of piezo-driven, nano-positioning stages from Physik Instrumente offer movements up to 950um while retaining a resolution of nanometres.

The P-628 series of piezo-driven, nano-positioning stages from Physik Instrumente offer movements up to 950um while retaining a resolution of nanometres The units are extremely compact and provide rapid movement with high guiding accuracy

The long travel range is achieved using a combination of a novel, friction-free, very stiff flexure system and ceramic-encapsulated PICMA multilayer piezo actuators.

A variety of 32bit digital controllers provide fast communications.

They are also able to read calibration data from ID chips integrated into the nano-positioning stages.

This feature allows easy interchangeability of the stages without the need for time consuming re-calibration.

The design of the stages makes them ideal for automation applications, where stable positioning control leads to higher throughputs.

The stages are also ideal for applications in metrology, white light interferometry, microscopy, spectroscopy and precision optical alignment. Request a free brochure from Lambda Photometrics ...
