Automated XY Stages position microscopy samples.

Press Release Summary:




Measuring 188 x 188 x 45 mm, Open Frame XY Stages replace manual stages found on microscopes and enable scanning speeds at 25 mm/sec. Linear encoder feedback ensures correct positioning with resolution of 0.1 µm and repeatability of 0.25 µm, while motion controller allows smooth positioning without vibration or shock to delicate samples. Very precise manual fine positioning is achieved through computerized control system and associated joystick.

High Speed Automated Microscopy XY Stages



IntelLiDrives www.intellidrives.com Open Frame XY stages designed for the replacements of the manual stages found on the microscopes to provide motorized XY positioning of the microscopy samples. These motorized stages enable scanning speeds at 25 mm/s.

The linear encoder feedback ensures correct positioning with a resolution of 0.1 µm and repeatability of 0.25 µm, while motion controller allows fast, smooth positioning without vibration or shock to delicate biological samples under investigation.

Characterized by high-speed scanning capabilities and high positional accuracy,
this stage is ideal for automated positioning of a wide range of specimens and samples in many types of microscopy and imaging techniques and applications. Very precise manual fine positioning is easily achieved through the combination of a computerized control system and associated joystick.
