Piezo Stages and Nanopositioning Systems

nPoint specializes in piezo-driven flexure-guided nanopositioners and motion control tools that can be used in various environments, including ultra-high vacuum and military-spec. The use of capacitive feedback ensures outstanding motion linearity and position accuracy while the nPoint C.300 DSP controller provides flexibility in optimizing the response of the nanopositioner in a variety of applications. nPoint’s piezo stages provide X, Z, XY, XYZ and tip-tilt nanomotion control. Our nanopositioning systems are designed for motion critical applications including: nanolithography, atomic force microscopy (AFM), biophysics, and optical focusing.

Our piezo flexure stages provide up to 400µm of scanning and position control in the X & Y axes, 100µm in the Z axis and 9 mradians in tip-tilt applications. The closed-loop feedback mechanism provides unequaled precision and accuracy. Our unique flexure-guided designs ensure high resonant frequencies while minimizing orthogonality and cross-talk effects. nPoint's piezo stages, coupled with our DSP electronic controls, provide users with the ultimate nanopositioning systems.
