Piezo-Z Stage for Scanning Microscopy

The P-612 Piezo-Z stage from nanopositioning specialist PI (Physik Instrumente) L.P. has been specifically designed to provide very fast response, sub-nanometer precision and highly repeatable motion in the Z-axis. This stage is a low-cost addition to the company's large range of leading-edge Z, XY, and XYZ piezo stages and piezo controllers.

The new P-612 Z-stage provides a travel range of 100 µm. The space-saving design features a footprint of only 60 x 60 mm. The 20 x 20 mm clear aperture makes them ideally suited for sample positioning in microscopy. Thanks to PICMA® piezoelectric actuator drives and frictionless flexure guidance, P-612 stages provide response times of a few milliseconds and resolutions in the nanometer range.
