The new SP200, part of the NanoScan SP Z Series, offers fast, reliable Z-axis movements up to 200 µm with a step-settle time of 7.5 ms. With a resolution of 0.5 nm, 3 nm repeatability, and 500 g load capacity as standard, it is a good entry point for users with short-travel applications.
The SP Z series also includes models offering 400 µm, 600 µm, and 800 µm travel. As well as being compatible with Prior’s motorized microscope stages and components the sample positioners have a slim profile to allow for easy illumination and access. They are suitable for applications in life sciences and materials with a full range of sample plates and inserts, including full microtiter plates.
Typical applications include:
- Optical sectioning producing 3D images
- Live cell imaging
- Autofocus systems for time-lapse imaging
- High content screening
- Surface analysis
- Semiconductor die inspection
