A
PI (Physik Instrumente) product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team
Sep 4, 2008
Nanopositioning specialist PI has introduced the M-810, the smallest commercially available electro-mechanical, high-force hexapod six-axis micropositioning system.
Features of the M-810 system include a 5kg load capacity; sub-micron resolution; long travel ranges to 40mm (linear) and 60deg (rotation); controller with freely definable virtual pivot point; high velocity of 10mm/s; operation in any orientation; and linear and rotary multi-axis scans.
It has a 10cm diameter and is 11.8cm tall.
