Nanopositioning Solutions The effects of human operation limit the precision of many optical adjustments. In theory, it is possible to achieve adequate adjustment sensitivity with very fine mechanics. However, in practice, the lateral forces applied to a component during an adjustment often have an excessive effect, making alignments lengthy and frustrating. Also, many optical experiments are extremely sensitive to environmental factors and provide consistent results only when well shielded against external influences. Our nanopositioner solutions are ideal devices for providing exceptional nanometer...

Picomotor™ Actuators • < 30 nm resolution in a compact design • Set-and-forget long-term stability • Lifetimes of 1,000,000,000 steps • Vacuum and Ultrahigh-Vacuum From left to right: Models 8353, 8341, 8301, 8302, and 8303. OPTICAL MOUNTS Picomotor actuators are ideal for motorizing fine-positioning stages and mounts. Use them with our stages and mounts or your own custom devices. They have better than 30-nm resolution with minimal backlash, and can exert a 5-lb (22-N) force. Moreover, they have exceptional longterm stability and the ability to hold their position with no power applied. These...

Tiny Picomotor™ Actuators •Ultra compact design •Set-and-forget long-term stability Our Tiny Picomotor actuator is a smaller-sized version of our standard Picomotor actuators. We have improved the design so that it will meet even more of your compact-area needs. The Tiny Picomotor actuator is ideal for moving small linear stages, like our Compact Gothic-Arch-Bearing stage. It is also integrated with some of our Pint-Sized mounts. The overall footprint is even smaller now; the cable exits from the side, similarly to our standard Picomotor actuators. For such a small device, it has an impressive...
