PIFOC Objective Scanner with Long Travel Range High-Precision Positioner and Scanner for Microscope Objectives P-725  Travel ranges to 460 µm  Significantly faster response and higher lifetime than motorized drives  Fine positioning of objectives with sub-nm resolution  Direct position measuring with capacitive sensors: Highest linearity  Zero-play, high-precision flexure guide system for better focus stability  Compatible with MetaMorph imaging software  Outstanding lifetime due to PICMA® piezo actuators  Clear aperture up to Ø 29 mm Application fields Super-resolution microscopy Light disc microscopy Confocal microscopy 3-D imaging Screening Interferometry Measuring technology Autofocus systems Biotechnology Semiconductor tests Outstanding lifetime thanks to PICMA® piezo actuators The patented PICMA® piezo actuators are all-ceramic insulated. This protects them against humidity and failure resulting from an increase in leakage current. PICMA® actuators offer an up to ten times longer lifetime than conventional polymerinsulated actuators. 100 billion cycles without a single failure are proven. Subnanometer resolution with capacitive sensors Capacitive sensors measure with subnanometer resolution without contacting. They guarantee excellent linearity of motion, long-term stability, and a

High guiding accuracy due to zero-play flexure guides Flexure guides are free of maintenance, friction, and wear, and do not require lubrication. Their stiffness allows high load capacity and they are insensitive to shock and vibration. They are 100 % vacuum compatible and work in a wide temperature range. Automatic configuration and fast component exchange Mechanics and controllers can be combined as required and exchanged quickly. All servo and linearization parameters are stored in the ID chip of the D-sub connector of the mechanics. The autocalibration function of the digital controllers...
