Portable digital microscope is a complete system
Versatile, high resolution digital microscope is a complete system based around a 2.3 megapixel digital camera, with a compact flash memory card and images are viewed on an integrated 2in LCD monitor.
Together with their small dimensions and the cost-effective design, the P-601 lever-amplified actuators are especially well suited for OEM applications.
Compared to direct-driven piezo translators, PiezoMove actuators offer larger travel ranges, as well as much higher lateral stiffness and guiding precision.
Compared to single-axis nanopositioning stages, they offer clearly smaller dimensions.
PiezoMove P-601 versions with strain-gauge sensors (SGS) use a full-bridge arrangement that is immune to thermal drift.
Versions without sensors are also available for open-loop applications.
In addition to standard models made of steel, special Invar, aluminium, and non-magnetic versions are available on request. Request a free brochure from Lambda Photometrics ...
