The P-725KHDS is a one-axis PIFOC objective scanner with a 400 µm travel range, designed for high-dynamic nanofocusing with heavy loads in microscopy applications. It features a frictionless flexure-guided design with a capacitive position sensor, a PICMA® piezo drive with all-ceramic insulation, and a QuickLock adapter compatible with M32 threads. The scanner has a load capacity of 10 N, a resonant frequency of 120 Hz with a 400 g load, and a step-and-settle time of 20 ms under the same load. It is constructed from aluminum, operates between 10 and 50 °C, and uses a D-sub 7W2 connector with a 1.5 m cable. The closed-loop resolution is 2.5 nm and linearity error is 0.06%.
