P-737 PIFOC Z Stage for Biotechnology
High-speed, high-resolution piezo Z-focusing stage supporting live cell observation.
In the fields of life sciences and biotechnology, stable focusing during microscopic observation greatly affects the reproducibility of acquired data and the accuracy of analysis. Particularly in live cell imaging and 3D observation, high-speed and high-resolution Z-axis control is required. The P-737 PIFOC Z stage employs a piezo-flexure mechanism that directly drives the objective lens, achieving high-speed Z positioning with nanometer resolution. Depending on the model, it can secure sufficient stroke length, making it suitable for Z-stack acquisition and long-duration observations. Its compact design also allows for easy integration into existing microscope systems. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Live cell imaging - 3D observation using confocal microscopy - Cell culture and tissue observation 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Reduced measurement time through high-speed Z scanning - Precise focusing with nanometer resolution - Highly reproducible imaging - Easy integration into microscope systems
