Application fields Super-resolution microscopy Light disk microscopy Confocal microscopy 2-photon microscopy 3D imaging Screening Interferometry Measuring technology Autofocus systems Biotechnology Semiconductor inspection PIFOC scanner system of the entry-level class System consisting of P-725.xCDE1 PIFOC scanner and E-709.1C1L controller. Outstanding lifetime thanks to PICMA®piezo actuators PICMA® piezo actuators are all-ceramic insulated. This protects them against humidity and failure resulting from an increase in leakage current. PICMA® actuators offer an up to ten times longer lifetime than conventional polymer-insulated actuators. 100 billion cycles without a single failure are proven. Sub nanometer resolution with capacitive sensors Capacitive sensors measure with sub nanometer resolution without contacting. They guarantee excellent linearity of motion, long-term stability, and a bandwidth in the kHz range. High guide accuracy due to zero-play flexure guides Flexure guides are free of maintenance, friction, and wear, and do not require lubrication. Their stiffness allows high load capacity and they are insensitive to shock and vibration. They work in a wide temperature range.
