Compact Linear Translation Stage for Nanopositioning
PI (Physik Instrumente) LP offers a new type of positioning stage based on a miniaturized ceramic inertia drive. The PI miCos LPS-45 linear translation stage is designed to position samples along a precisely guided path with distances up to 1 inch. The position of the moving platform is measured by an optical linear encoder with […]
Precision Positioning Systems go Nano
Physik Instrumente (PI) introduced a series of miniaturized, piezo-motor-driven linear positioners at the 2013 LASER World of PHOTONICS conference — the world’s largest trade show for lasers and photonics related products — in in Munich, Germany,. PI’s new LPS-24 positioners are less than one inch wide and provide 15 mm travel range with closed-loop sensor […]
Motion-Amplified Piezo Actuator Cuts Costs
Piezo motion specialist Physik Instrumente (PI) has added a new member to its PiezoMove family of motion-amplified, flexure-guided piezo linear actuators. The new P-604 model was designed with emphasis on cost, size and travel range. Applications Providing a large displacement of 300µm in a very small package of only 20x13x4mm, the actuator was optimized for […]
