Motorized 4-Slide Stage with Integrated Controller

The motorized stage provides high resolution repeatable movement of microscope slides. It could be used in automated microscope systems.

Key Features and Benefits

• Integrated controllers obviate the need for a separate controller unit; devices connect to the computer serial or USB port via a distribution box. This innovative design provides cost saving, requires less desk space, reduces cable clutter, and eliminates motor cables carrying high frequency current.

• Stage can be on the same serial line as other devices with integrated controllers: filter wheels and focus drive.

• Lower weight and more balanced weight distribution than in comparable stages. Most of the weight is close to the microscope column.

• Open frame design provides convenient access to the slides. Slides can be changed without lowering the stage.

• Based on off-the-shelf highly accurate integrated linear actuators.

• Specimen holder can be custom-designed for different non-standard applications, e.g., microfluidic chips.

• Stage can be ordered with different lead screws to accommodate different speed-resolution trade-offs.

• Specimen holder can be aligned in X-Z, and Y-Z planes to keep the whole scan area in focus. Alignment is done at the factory and can be repeated by the user.

• Accurate optical limit switches provide reproducible homing.

• Has two optional digital outputs per axis.
