nPoint piezo driven nanopositioning flexure stages now available from Elliot Scientific

Harpenden, UK | Posted on June 4th, 2019

nPoint specialises in piezo actuator driven flexure stages most typically available in one, two or three axes of motion. In conjunction with their ultra-precision motion control scanners and controllers, users can achieve the highest levels of performance available in the marketplace.



nPoint’s superior software control enables users to set up, configure, test and control the piezo stages at the click of a mouse - outperforming more traditional basic GUI and control architectures.



The stages are matched to both research and OEM applications with typical application areas of:



Life Science / Microscopy - piezo stages provide accurate, fast, and repeatable motion that enable high-throughput data acquisition and processing for techniques such as super resolution microscopy, sample scanning, autofocus, and cell tracking.



Semiconductor / Data Storage - nanopositioners are used in production, development, and inspection of silicon wafers and hard disk recording heads, control systems and process/manufacturing control tests.



Optics - high speed nanopositioners enable movement of an optic for a multitude of precision applications such as scanning, laser beam steering, phase shifting, dithering and focusing.



AFM / Materials Science - piezo stages have been traditionally used as closed-loop scanners for Atomic Force Microscopes, offering extremely low out-of-plane motion, no piezo drift, exceptional scanning linearity, and longer travel ranges.



Photonics Packaging / Communications - in fibre optics, nanopositioning stages have become critical for speedy and optimal alignment duties.



Elliot Scientific will be demonstrating nPoint technology at various UK trade events this year, and looks forward to enabling researchers and OEMs achieve significant benefits from incorporating nPoint systems within their applications.
