Precision positioning at the nano level with a 66 mm opening × maximum 300 µm on the XYZ axis.

The P-561 to P-563 series are XYZ-axis piezo nanopositioners that utilize a parallel kinematics structure and capacitive sensors. The operational range is 100/200/300 µm for each XYZ axis (depending on the model), with a reproducibility of ±2 nm and linearity of 0.03%. The aperture is 66×66 mm, ensuring a clear path for transmitted light and laser light. The direct drive type operates at 45 µm on the XY axis and 15 µm on the Z axis, with a resonance frequency of 1000 Hz under no load, achieving high resolution and fast response. Additionally, the PICMA piezo ceramics are fully insulated with all-ceramic construction, providing humidity resistance, high reliability, and long lifespan. They are ideal for semiconductor testing, super-resolution microscopy, and photonics alignment. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.
