Designed to replace manual stages on upright and inverted microscopes, features 100 x 120 mm travel with 0.15 µm resolution, 12 µm full travel accuracy, and 2 µm repeatability. Unit is equipped with adjustable non-contact hall sensor limit switches, and crossed roller bearings on hardened stainless steel rails for smooth movement.
Suitable for use with stage, Motor Controller drives up to 2 axes of bipolar stepper motors or actuators, up to 2.5 A/phase.
Microscope Stage and Controller
The microscope stage is designed to replace manual stages on upright and inverted microscopes. These stages can be used with many common microscopes such as Leica, Nikon, Olympus, and Zeiss, or for stand-alone operation as scanning stages. Their low profile and flatness make them suitable for many applications and allow them to be incorporated into many different types of systems. It is available with the following standard features:
• 100 x 120 mm travel with 0.15 µm resolution
• 12 µm full travel accuracy and 2 µm repeatability
• Low profile: 42 mm overall height
• Crossed roller bearings on hardened stainless steel rails for smooth movement
• Easily adjustable non-contact hall sensor limit switches
• 85 mm/s maximum speed
The controller is a stepper motor controller capable of driving up to two axes of bipolar stepper motors or actuators, up to 2.5 A/phase. An intuitive ASCII interface allows the user to easily communicate with the device through Console, free software, as well as third party terminal programs. Consistent syntax makes it easy to program and script for the contoller, and an event-driven trigger system allows the device to be programmed for stand-alone operation based on I/O, time, or movement stimuli.
The controller can be used for stepper motor control of many other devices, including the stage. Pairing the stage with the controller and software allows users to easily control the speed and position of the unit, adjust device settings, and write custom scripts for automation tasks.
