This single axis Nanopositioning stage has one linear axis of motion and is intended primarily for horizontal motion. However, the stage will function in other orientations. The capacitive sensor design provides sub-nanometer displacement measurement and closed-loop feedback over a range in excess of 15µm. The millisecond response time and high bandwith make this stage ideal for high-throughput applications. The stage system includes the NPC-D-6110 single channel closed loop controller.
Applications for the NPS-X-15B Nanopositioning stage include atomic force microscopy (AFM), magneto-resistive head and disk drive testing, interferometry, and metrology.
The Nanopostion Stage NPS-X-15B is made to order and the exact specifications of your stage will be provided when you receive it. Typical specifications are as follows:
- Stage Material: Aluminum
- Open Loop Range: ± 13 µm (varies with each stage)
- Closed Loop Range: ± 8 µm, typical with a minimum of ± 7.5µm (varies with each stage)
- Scale factor error (1σ): 0.1% (varies with each stage)
- Resonant frequency: at 0g load: 6500 Hz is typical, with a minimum of 5500 Hz (varies with each stage)
- Maximum load: 0.5 kg for gravity acting in the Z direction
- Size: 60mm L x 40mm W x 13.5mm H
The NPC-D-6110 Controller is a single channel, 20 bit controller and has the following specifications:
