Its 350 x 350 x 250 µm, XYZ positioning and scanning range comes in an extremely compact package. Equipped with a zero-stiction, zero-friction guiding system, this NanoCube® provides motion with ultra-high resolution and settling times of only a few milliseconds. Open- and closed-loop versions are offered to suit your application. Higher Precision Through Parallel-Motion Metrology & Parallel-Kinematics P-615s are based on a newly developed frictionless XYZ piezo scanner, equipped with direct-measuring, multi-axis capacitve position sensors (parallel metrology). The capacitive sensors directly measure the position of the moving platform (rather than strain in the drive system, as is common with lower-precision strain gauge sensors). Parallel metrology can "see" all controlled degrees of freedom simultaneously and compensate for runout and crosstalk of orthogonal axes. This technique, combined with the inherent precision of the non-contact capacitive sensor an the parallel-kinematics design results in higher linearity, and provides superior responsiveness, resolution, repeatability and stability at the nanometer level. Double Stiffness As do the single-axis NanoPositioners of the P-620 PIHera Series, the P-615 NanoCube® 350C provides high stiffness combined with very large travel ranges. The unique flexure design provides for twice the stiffness in the vertical axis, (compared to X or Y), allowing for faster response and higher operating frequencies under load. For example, the settling-time (with 100 g load!) to reach a commanded position with 1% accuracy is only 15 ms in the Z-axis (approximately 35% faster without load). Photonics Alignment The NanoCube® 350C is equipped with a fiber adapter interface similar to the P-611.3SF NanoCube® (see link) and accommodates all F-603-series fiber holders and accessories (see link). Working Principle with Increased Lifetime P-615 NanoPositioners are equipped with the unique P-885 PICMA® monolithic multilayer piezo actuators integrated into a sophisticated flexure guiding system. The wire-EDM-cut flexures are FEA (finite element analysis) modeled for zero stiction and zero friction, highest possible resolution and exceptional guiding precision. The newly designed and highly optimized drives are more robust than conventional piezo actuators, and feature superior lifetime in dynamic and static applications. Because guidance and sensors are all frictionless and maintenance-free, NanoCube® systems achieve exceptional levels of reliability. Integrated capacitive position feedback sensors provide nanometer-scale resolution and stability in closed-loop operation (with PI control electronics).
