Product catalog summary
Overview: The NanoScanZ 100, 200, and 400 are advanced piezo focusing stages designed for precise Z-axis control, ideal for applications such as deconvolution, 3D reconstruction, and confocal microscopy, especially with live cells. Unlike other devices, NanoScanZ maintains parfocality across all nose-piece positions and supports DIC techniques.
Specifications:
  • Travel Range: NanoScanZ 100 offers 100 µm, NanoScanZ 200 offers 200 µm, and NanoScanZ 400 offers 400 µm of travel.
  • Compatibility: Compatible with Zeiss, Nikon, Olympus, and Leica microscopes, and their manual stages with an adapter.
  • Accuracy and Linearity: 0.5% of travel.
  • Repeatability: 1 nm for NZ100/200, 5 nm for NZ400.
  • Control: RS232 and USB control, compatible with ProScanTM controllers and motorized stages.
  • Speed: Movements complete in approximately 10 ms.
  • Display: LCD shows current position.
  • Compliance: Fully CE compliant.
Product Variants:
  • NZ100: Accommodates 26 x 76 mm slides and 35 mm Petri dishes.
  • NZ200: Accommodates 26 x 76 mm slides and 35 mm Petri dishes.
  • NZ400: Accommodates 26 x 76 mm slides, 70 mm Petri dishes, and 85 x 128 mm microtitre/well plates.
Additional Features:
  • Interchangeable sample holders.
  • High precision closed-loop feedback.
  • Compatible with software supporting objective collars.
Technical Specifications:
  • Operating Temperature: 5-50°C.
  • Body Material: Anodised Aluminium.
  • Stage Control Input: Analogue (0-10 volt DC), USB, RS232 from ProScan controller.
  • Power Requirement: 90-240 Volt AC.
  • Max Load: 500g.
  • Resonant Frequency: 1KHz.
  • In-plane Tilt: 10µrad (typical).

NanoScan Z 100, 200 & 400-1

Fast Piezo focussing stage and controller Compatible with the ProScanTM H117 range of stages Accuracy and Linearity 0.5% of travel Unlike other piezo focussing devices that move a single objective lens, the NanoScanZ can be used with all nose-piece positions, ensuring no loss of parfocality. In addition, DIC techniques can be used with the NanoScan Z. Interchangeable sample holders The NanoScanZ 100 has 100 µm of travel, the NanoScanZ 200 200 µm and the NanoScanZ 400 400 µm of travel. It is compatible with the Zeiss AxioVert 200/AxioObserver, Nikon TE2000/TI, Olympus IX51/71/81 and the Leica DMIRB/DMI 4000/DMI 5000/DMI 6000 microscopes. It is also compatible with the manual stages of these microscopes with the purchase of an adapter. High Precision closed loop feedback. Compatible with ProScanTM controllers and motorised stages Can be driven by all software that supports objective collars Faster than objective collars - all size movements complete in approximately 10ms LCD display clearly shows current position Range of compatible inserts allows analysis of a Offering researchers fast and highly precise control of the Z axis, the NanoScanZ 100, 200 & 400 are ideally suited to deconvolution, 3D reconstruction and confocal microscopy; particularly for applications demanding live cells.
