In the field of biotechnology, precise focus control is essential for high-resolution observation of the fine structures of cells and tissues in microscopic imaging applications. This is particularly true for 3D imaging techniques such as confocal microscopy and multiphoton microscopy, where high resolution and fast responsiveness along the Z-axis (focus direction) directly impact observation accuracy. The P-725.xCDE2 PIFOC Focus Scanner employs a flexure guide mechanism with PICMA piezo actuators and capacitive sensors to achieve precise focus control with sub-nanometer resolution. It also supports a maximum stroke of 800 µm, enabling fast and high-precision scanning over a wide range in the depth direction. These characteristics help reduce observation time while minimizing focus position shifts, ultimately contributing to improved reliability and efficiency of experiments. 【Application Scenes】 - Confocal microscopy - Multiphoton microscopy - 3D imaging - Live cell imaging - High-throughput microscopy screening 【Benefits of Implementation】 - High-precision Z-direction focus control - Expanded range of focus stroke - Improved observation efficiency through fast scanning - Stable imaging quality

In the field of biotechnology, particularly in cell observation, high-precision positioning is essential. To observe the fine structures of cells, accurate position control at the nanometer level is required. Conventional stages have sometimes hindered precise observation due to vibrations and drift. The N-332 piezo linear stage achieves high-precision positioning unaffected by stick-slip friction through the PICMAWalk drive, enhancing the quality of cell observation. 【Application Scenarios】 - Cell culture - Microscopic observation - Cell manipulation 【Effects of Implementation】 - Accurate positioning with nanometer resolution - Improved stability through a self-locking mechanism - Flexible response with multi-axis setup

In the field of research and development, precise positioning of samples, optical elements, and sensors greatly affects experimental results.
