Piezoelectric Objective Lens Positioning System: MIPOS 20
Chracteristics:
- 20 µm adjustment range
- Sub-nm resolution
- Very compact design
- Parallelogram construction
- High resonant frequency
- Easy to fix onto microscopes by Flex-Adapter
The piezoelectric objective lens positioning system MIPOS series were developed for finely adjusting microscope objectives and object lenses. The maximum motion is 20 µm. The resolution of MIPOS 20 is very high and, in practice, only limited by the voltage noise of the power supply.
A special integrated preload design results in the following advantages:
- Very small angular deviation
- Highly parallel large range motion
- High resonant frequency
All standard threads for Zeiss, Leica, Olympus, Nikon, Mitutoyo etc. are available for the top and bottom sides of the MIPOS series.
Mounting this system onto the microscope is very easy - screw the Flex-Adapter thread ring into the microscope and mount the MIPOS on this ring with a clamping screw. Because of the small size, no other threads beside the MIPOS are blocked.
To avoid drift and hysteresis, the piezoelectric objective lens positioning system MIPOS elements are also available with an integrated strain gauge measurement system "SG".
