PXY 100

PXY 100 – Description

The PXY 100 solid-state hinges in a parallelogram construction provide parallel motion without mechanical play in the X and Y directions. This construction design results in a high resolution solution which far surpasses the resolution of mechanical and electromechanical positioning systems.

The nanopositioning PXY 100 can easily be mounted to other positioning systems and can be equipped with strain gauge measurement to overcome the effect of hysteresis. Cryo and vacuum PXY 100 versions are also available.

Dynamic operation is possible. The PXY 100 is well suited for solving scanning issues.

PXY 38

PXY 38 – Description

The 2-axis PXY 38 was developed especially for optical scanning applications. It is optimized for a high resonant frequency and a high stiffness in all axes.

Originally designed for mounting optical lenses, this piezo XY positioner delivers fast and precise movement of mechanical parts. 

The internal pre-load and the design (without mechanical transmission) make this actuator well suited for high frequency applications – up to the kilohertz range.

PZ 700

PZ 700 – Description

The piezo positioner PZ 700 enables highly accurate positioning of the Z axis. The stage is driven by multilayer piezo ceramics. By using piezo ceramics in solid state flexure systems, motion without mechanical play is guaranteed. Based on its design the piezo positioner PZ 700 is pre-loaded and can be used dynamically.

The PZ 700 offers a large travel range of up to 700 µm and an inside aperture of 66 x 66 mm.
