Product Description |
The MCL-MANNZ is an integrated micro-nanopositioning system for use with inverted optical microscopes. Easy to operate and affordable, the MCL-MANNZ combines a manual micrometer driven, two axis, linear motion stage with a high resolution, z-axis nanopositioner. A stable blocking force of 10 N built into each axis of the coarse positioning stage provides a secure base for precision nanopositioning. The overall design of the MCL-MANNZ ensures that the sample height remains within the proper focal range of the microscope. The z-axis nanopositioner has a range of motion of 200 microns. Internal position sensors utilizing proprietary PicoQ® technology provide absolute, repeatable position measurement. The MCL-MANNZ system includes the compact version of the Nano-Drive® controller and it is compatible with user written LabVIEW software. Standard MCL-MANNZ systems are offered for the following inverted microscopes: Olympus IX Series, Nikon TE/Ti Series, Leica DMI Series, and Zeiss Axiovert/Axio Observer Series. MCL-MANNZ systems designed to fit other setups, including direct mounting to optical tables, may also be requested.
The MCL-MOTNZ combines a stepper motor XY stage with a closed loop, high resolution, Z-axis piezo stage for an option that is completely automated. For combined stepper motor XY with XYZ piezo stage, see the Nano-View® Series. For combined manual XY translateion with XYZ piezo stage, see the Nano-View®/M Series. For a piezo Z stage with a longer travel option and an aperture sized for multi-well plates, see the Nano-ZL Series.
