Positioning equipment

PI (Physik Instrumente) has introduced the H-820 Hexapod. The parallel-kinematic positioning system has been proven to reliably attain a linear repeatability of 20 micrometres

Owis has introduced linear precision stages with a width of 30mm and a working height of 16mm

PI (Physik Instrumente) miCos has launched the LPS-22, a series of linear and rotary positioning systems

Physik Instrumente (PI) has introduced the N-470 linear actuator, which simplifies the automated adjustment of mechanical and optomechanical components

Symetrie has launched NanoPos, a nanometre resolution positioning hexapod developed for applications such as positioning in optics or nanotechnologies

Piezosystem jena has launched stack type actuators series PA, for use in applications such as scanning microscopy, laser fine tuning, micro manipulation or mirror positioning.

ScannerMax has released the Compact-506 model optical scanner, which is built upon ScannerMax's VRAD actuator platform

PI ceramic has launched the P-878 DuraAct Power piezo patch transducer that has an operating voltage of -20 to 120V

Physik Instrumente has introduced the P-736 Z axis piezo scanner for inverted microscopes

Physik Instrumente (PI) has released N-603 linear positioning stages. These replace a conventional piezo actuator with a high-resolution piezo stepping drive of the Nexact series
