NanoScan OP800 piezo objective nanopositioning stage with 800 µm range for upright or inverted microscopy.

NanoScan OP800 Piezo Objective Scanner


Nanopositioning Stage With 800 µm Range for Upright Or Inverted Microscopy

The NanoScan OP800 piezo-driven objective positioner is compatible with most commercial and customized microscopes. The stage features an M32 objective thread as standard with a wide range of adapters available.

Settings for inverted or upright operation and load capacity are set during manufacture and can be further tuned in the field to optimize for specific applications.

The OP800 provides the fastest step and settle time of any piezo-driven objective positioner with a range of up to 800 µm. It features capacitive feedback sensors that ensure exceptional repeatability and resolution.

With its long travel range, it is especially suitable for whole organism, lightsheet, and multiphoton microscopy.

0-500 g load as standard: a high load version (up to 1000 g) is available.
