PI provides a large variety of objective nanofocusing stages with piezo motors and voice coil motors. These nanopositioning scanning stages provide high precision focus control and are ideal for imaging. Fast objective lens positioners (Z-motors or piezo collar scanners), and piezo z-stages (slide-scanners, sample scanners) for deconvolution and 3D imaging (Z-stack acquisition) and fast focusing applications are also available.
Why Choose PI Z-Scanners w/ Voice Coil and Piezo Motors?
PI's piezo-actuated Z-scanners typically achieve 10 times higher focusing speed & precision than classical motorized drives. Our new V-308 Voice Coil motor vertical slide combines longer travel and nanometer resolution.
PI Nanofocusing Stages are Compatible with All Major Image Acquisition Packages
PIFOC® controllers come with a high-bandwidth analog interface for extremely fast response and compatibility with all major image acquisition packages.
New Lower Cost Fast Piezo Focus Packages with Digital Control & Software
For the most commonly used travel ranges and objective diameters, PI has now put together lower cost PIFOC® packages with a new compact digital controller and software. Datasheet: PIFOC® Fast Piezo Focus Systems
High dynamics 400µm objective piezo nanofocusing system. Extra stiff design for large objectives and high dynamics, fast step & settle, QuickLock mounting system, direct capacitive metrology.
120Hz resonant frequency, with 400g objective, resulting in 20msec step-and-settle 20 with that load.
