The New NPXY250-405 Piezo Stage from nPoint

Middleton, WI | Posted on March 12th, 2015

The NPXY250-405 nanopositioner is a piezo driven, flexure guided stage, designed for economical XY positioning and scanning. Having a position noise of 3nm with strain gauge sensors, this system provides the accuracy necessary for today's advanced applications. When paired with a LC.400 series DSP controller, the piezo stage can obtain closed-loop capability. It has a travel of 250µm for positioning in the X and Y axes. The nanopositioner can be configured to hold many optics and samples and can be used for AFM scanning.

As the newest of nPoint's piezo stage offerings, the NPXY250-405 can be used in a variety of areas including research, manufacturing, and as an OEM system component.

Application examples include: optical microscopy, lithography, nanometer-scale manipulation, metrology, materials testing, optical fiber alignment, and scanning probe microscopy.
