Description

The Carrier.OBHL100.C is a high-performance objective scanner engineered for demanding optical and semiconductor applications. Designed with RT·Piezo motion technology and integrated into the advanced "Carrier Series," this Z-axis scanner delivers precise vertical positioning with a generous travel range of 100 µm. The system achieves sub-nanometer closed-loop resolution (as fine as 0.3 nm) using a high-precision capacitive sensor, ensuring excellent stability and accuracy during auto-focus operations.

With a rapid settling time of 10 ms and compatibility with the MC-Archimedes Series motion controller, the Carrier.OBHL100.C guarantees fast and reliable performance. This scanner supports specialized environments with optional versions for non-magnetic (.NM), high vacuum (.HV), and ultra-high vacuum (.UHV) applications, making it versatile for use in cleanrooms, vacuum chambers, and sensitive research facilities.

Its robust construction—featuring stainless steel 304 and aluminum alloy—enables the scanner to carry loads up to 500 g while maintaining excellent dynamic characteristics. With resonance frequencies up to 900 Hz unloaded, it is optimized for precision optics, semiconductor inspection, and real-time imaging systems.
