New linear positioning stage with <1 nanometer sensor resolution from PI

The new LPS-24 is a very small linear positioning stage with a width of 24 mm. Two variants are offered with different resolutions: the avago sensor with 150 nm and PIOne with 0.5 nm.

• Only 24 mm width
• With integrated linear encoder with 150 or 0.5 nm resolution
• Holding force 5 N
• NEXACT® piezomotors

Reference-class linear positioning system
Direct metrology with linear encoder; high guiding accuracy and position stability

NEXACT® piezo stepping drive
High-resolution piezoelectric linear drive. Compact design, holding force up to 5 N. Nanostepping mode with <1 nm resolution. Constant velocity motion. Long lifetime, drive principle based exclusively on mechanical stiction

PIOne linear encoder
Optional. Based on interferometric measurement principle. 2 or 0.5 nm designs. Direction-sensing homing track. Compact design for easy integration in positioning systems. Patented technology

Fields of application
Sample handling, positioning of samples and optical or mechanical components for installations limited in space. For use in research and industry. Vacuum versions available on request
