System consisting of M-687 XY stage, controller, USB joystick, and appropriate cables. Large clear aperture 160 mm × 110 mm.
You will find matching fine positioning stages (X / Y / Z / ΘX / ΘY / ΘZ), sample holders (microscope slide, holder for Petri dishes, and microtiter plates), as well as any adapter plates necessary in our "Microscope Stage Configurator" brochure.
Self-locking at rest. Low noise. Highest stability due to low thermal load and no lubricants. Large dynamics range of 10 µm/s to 120 mm/s, ideal for operating with joystick and automated high-content processes.
Noncontact optical encoders measure the actual position directly at the motion platforms with the greatest accuracy so that nonlinearity, mechanical play or elastic deformation have no influence on position measuring.
PIMikroMove. PI General Command Set (GCS). Drivers for NI LabVIEW. Compatible with µManager, MetaMorph, Andor iQ, MATLAB.
For inverted microscopes from Nikon, Olympus and Leica, versions for other microscopes available on request. For super resolution microscopy, tiling, automated scanning microscopy.
