PI publishes piezo nano positioning guide
A
PI (Physik Instrumente) product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team
Mar 9, 2009
Physik Instrumente has released the Piezo Nano Positioning Inspirations 2009 catalogue, a 530-page reference book covering nanopositioning, piezo systems and micropositioning technology.
It contains more than 200 product ranges, 30 per cent of them new, with more than 1000 drawings, graphs, images and technical diagrams.
Examples of PI's products and technologies include: parallel-kinematics nanopositioning / scanning stages; high-speed ultrasonic linear motors for automation; capacitive nanometrology sensor systems; NSOM scanning microscopy stages; ceramic-encapsulated piezo actuators; PiezoWalk piezo worm type linear motors for bio/nanotechnology; miniature motors for autofocus cell-phone type cameras; six-axis hexapod micromotion robots; high-load, low-speed mirror alignment systems for astronomical telescopes; high-speed scanning and steering mirrors and mirror shifters; motorised precision actuators and stages for semiconductor applications; digital and analogue nanopositioning motion controllers and piezo drivers; servo and stepper motor controllers; photonics alignment systems; photometers; and tutorials and selection guides.
On top of the product descriptions and selection guides, extensive tutorials on piezo technology, the fundamentals of nanopositioning, micropositioning and nanometrology are included to aid users in selecting the system that best meets their needs.
A PDF version of the catalogue can be downloaded from PI's website.
