08 Aug 2007 piezosystem jena has expanded their large range of outstanding micro-objective focusing system of the series MIPOS with the introduction of the nanoMIPOS400 CAP. This new system compliments the well-tried and cost effective system MIPOS 500 with a new nano positioner with a capacitive measurement system.
The nano positioner provides a travel of 450 µm with a resolution in the range of nanometers.
The special bidirectional nanoX® gear design offers an outstanding guidance accuracy without parasitic motion. External vibrations, for example generated by a motor-driven microscope tripod, have almost no effect on the exact positioning of the system even down to the nm range. This is thanks to an integrated damping system and a very high proper resonance. The integrated positioning sensors guarantee long term stable positioning fidelity, free of drift. Thus the system satisfies the high precision demands in biology, medicine and laser technology.
Because of the excellent mechanical features, the nanoMIPOS 400 CAP can be employed in upright and inverse microscopes.
As with all MIPOS systems from piezosystem jena, the nanoMIPOS can be used for all current types of threads from W0.8x1/36" across M25x0.75 to M32x0.75 by a thread-flex-adapter. This feature emphasizes the universal possible applications of the MIPOS-systems.
