The travel range 25 × 25 mm offered by the compact and low-profile U-760 microscope XY stage is particularly suitable for examining samples on standard microscope slides. A sample holder is also required and must be ordered separately.
Bidirectional repeatability ±0.5 µm. Highest stability due to low thermal load and no lubricants. Large dynamics range of 10 µm/s to 100 mm/s, ideal for operating with a joystick. Self-locking at rest. Low noise.
It is possible to mount piezo nanopositioners from the P-545 PInano® and P-541 / P-542 series onto the platform of the U-760. Adapter plates from PI are available for combining with other piezo nanopositioners.
Various sample holders available (holders for microscope slides/Petri dish holders).
You will find matching fine positioning stages (X / Y / Z / ΘX / ΘY / ΘZ), sample holders (microscope slide, holder for Petri dishes), as well as any adapter plates necessary in our "Microscope Stage Configurator" brochure.
For inverted microscopes from Nikon (Eclipse Ti, Ti2) and Olympus (IX, IX2, IX3). Versions for other microscopes on request.
