Nanopositioning Controller

Nanopositioning Controller with 24Bit Resolution

  • Sub-nanometer resolution feasible
  • Integrated USB Interface, 24 bit DA converters
  • Network Capability with up to 12 Channels
  • Position motion controller for Strain Gauge and Capacitive Sensors
  • Notch Filter for Higher Bandwidth
  • Additional Analog Interface
  • Data Table for User-Defined Curves

These 24-bit interfaces provide better resolution for nanopositioning stages . The new interfaces will allow better than 100 picometers command resolution even on the latest generation long travel piezo nanopositioning stages (1 mm and up) such as the PIHera™ series closed-loop flexure stages.

1 to 12 Channels, Many Variations
The 24bit piezo motion controllers come in a variety of bench-top, rack-mount and OEM card versions from single-channel units for simple linear actuator applications to multi-axis system controllers with 12 channels per rack.

Extensive Software Support 
The new piezo drivers and motion controllers come with Windows installation software, DLLs and LabVIEW drivers. The extensive command set is based on the hardware-independent General Command Set (GCS), common to all PI micro & nanopositioning systems. GCS reduces the programming effort in the face of complex multi-axis positioning tasks or when upgrading a system with a different PI controller.
