Outstanding lifetime due to PICMA® piezo actuators
The PICMA® piezo actuators are all-ceramic insulated. This protects them against humidity and failure resulting from an increase in leakage current. PICMA® actuators offer an up to ten times longer lifetime than conventional polymer-insulated actuators. 100 billion cycles without a single failure are proven.
Subnanometer resolution with capacitive sensors
Capacitive sensors measure with subnanometer resolution without contacting. They guarantee excellent linearity of motion, long-term stability, and a bandwidth in the kHz range.
High guiding accuracy due to zero-play flexure guides
Flexure guides are free of maintenance, friction, and wear, and do not require lubrication. Their stiffness allows high load capacity and they are insensitive to shock and vibration. They work in a wide temperature range.

応用事例
ゲノムシーケンス
Be it in medicine, forensics, or genetics - the genome is the key to new insights for numerous questions. The method known as sequencing-by-synthesis, which used to decipher the genome, has become faster and more precise since it was first developed — the cost has decreased, respectively. The positioning techniques employed in the microscope systems used for this purpose have also contributed to...
