The new models are equipped with direct-measuring capacitive sensors.



PI (Physik Instrumente) LP (Auburn, MA) has added two higher-performance models to its successful PInano superresolution (SR) microscope stage series. The new models are equipped with direct-measuring capacitive sensors and feature:

  • High stability capacitive or lower cost piezoresistive sensors.
  • 24-bit controller with USB, Ethernet, RS-232 interface, and analog control.
  • 200 µm XY or XYZ Travel, closed-loop control for sub-nanometer precision.
  • Bottom slide mount for full turret rotation facilitates integration.
  • Slide holders and petri dish holders; motor XY atage, and manual stage options available
  • Longer lifetime due to ceramic encapsulated piezo drives.
  • Software support for leading image acquisition packages.
