PIFOC Focus Drive for Objectives | V-308
HIGH-DYNAMICS POSITIONER FOR MICROSCOPE OBJECTIVES
The V-308 is a Focus Drive which enables positioning objectives itself in relation to its sample in the Z-axis. This solution, named PIFOC, is suitable for microscopy technologies or other situations needing to position an objective for examinations. Position measuring is performed with the highest accuracy directly at the motion platform so that nonlinearity, mechanical play, or elastic deformation have no influence on position measuring
