Positioning systems offer fine adjustment
The Mipos range of objective/lens positioning systems has been developed for the fine adjustment of microscope objectives within high-resolution applications.
The bidirectional nanoX flexure design allows for a high dynamic and extremely accurate guidance.
The integrated positioning sensors guarantee long-term stable positioning, free of drift and hysterisis.
The digital micro objective nanopositioner is operated with digital electronics, which offer the advantages of the ASI and ASC-function.
The ASI-function (Automatic Sensor Identification) allows piezo actuators with positioning sensors to be completely interchangeable with control electronics of the same type.
Recalibration of the system is no longer necessary.
The ASC-function enables an identification of the nanoMIPOS 400 CAP and its calibration information.
This data is stored in the positioner itself and is immediately activated after the electronics have been changed.
With an integrated function generator, which contains standard values for frequency, amplitude, offset and so on, functions such as sine and triangle can be implemented.
The digital controller allows in-situ adjustment of the PID parameter, notch filter parameter and rise limitation.
The nanoMIPOS 400 CAP can be optimised in different "trial and error" scenarios easily.
The system satisfies the high-precision demands of biology, medicine and laser technology applications.
The nanoMIPOS 400 CAP can be easily adapted in upright and inverse microscopes.
The nanoMIPOS can be used with any thread types from W0.8x1/36 to M25x0.75 and even M32x0.75 with the use of a thread-flex-adapter.
