Frequently Asked Questions

Nanopositioning systems have X, Z, XY, XYZ, and tip/tilt motion associated. It is important to consider how many axes of motion are required for your application and what planes of movement are most important.

The advantages of flexure-based piezo electric stages include frictionless motion, high stiffness, high-speed motion, and small parasitic errors.

A controller is necessary for closed-loop control. It provides feedback to the piezo every 24 microseconds at the same time the sensor provides position data to ensure the stage is moving to the commanded position. A controller must be selected with an equal amount channels to axes of the stage.

The RXY6-212 Nanopositioning Piezo Stage is a fast tip-tilt nanopositioning piezo stage with 6mrad range of motion optimized for use with 1″, 2″ and 3″ mirrors.

Travel range is the maximum distance a stage can move in a single axis. It is important to consider travel range because the position noise of a stage will often increase with larger travel distance. It is also important to consider what the maximum travel requirement will be for a stage and compare the desired position noise to determine what, if any, tradeoffs should be made.
