M-545 Microscope XY Stage
Compact, Stable, Long Travel Range
- Stable platform for P-545 PInano® piezo nanopositioning systems
- Low profile for easy integration: 30 mm
- Travel range 25 mm × 25 mm
- Manual operation with micrometer screws, optional motorization
- For inverted microscopes from Nikon, Zeiss, Leica, and Olympus
Standard-class, manual microscope XY stage
Rough adjusting for piezo nanopositioners from PI as well as manual positioning of specimen holders. Supports optimum scanning and settling behavior.
Micrometer screw or stepper motor drive
The M-545 XY stage can also be equipped with drives from the M-229 series (all models except M-545.2MZ). Complete packages with two stepper motor drives, matching controller, and joystick, are available under the product numbers M-545.USG respectively M-545.USC.
Suitable for microscopes from a large number of manufacturers
For inverted microscopes from Nikon (TI), Zeiss (Axio Observer), Leica (DMI), and Olympus (IX2, IX3). Versions for other microscopes on request.
Can be combined with numerous PI nanopositioners
It is possible to mount piezo nanopositioners from the P-545 PInano® and P-541 / P-542 series onto the platform of the M-545. Adapter plates from PI are available for combining with other piezo nanopositioners.

적용 분야
Atomic Force Microscopy
Atomic force microscopy supplies researchers and developers extremely high resolution topographical data from a large number of different minerals, polymers, mixtures, composite materials or biological tissue. This technology, developed in the 1980s, enables users to obtain subatomic resolved images of sample surfaces.
Microscopy & Life Sciences
From genome research through the accurate diagnosis of illnesses to innovative solutions in surgery ‒ life sciences entail numerous disciplines in which new biomedical procedures are researched and devices are developed that are meant to improve the therapy for and quality of life of patients.
IsoView Light Sheet Microscope
Light Sheet Microscopy is a fascinating technology with a huge application potential in life sciences and biotechnology. IsoView is a brilliant interpretation of this technology, especially intended for imaging fast cellular dynamics across large specimens over several hours. Specimen positioning and objective translation plays a major role in the design of IsoView.
Flamingo Lightsheet Fluorescence Microscopy
Light Sheet Fluorescence Microscopy (LSFM), also called Single Plane Illumination Microscopy (SPIM ) is a very powerful microscopy technology for gentle in vivo imaging offering low phototoxicity and fast image acquisition.
GATTAscope (TIRFM)
Linear stages adjust the laser beam in the TIRF microscope. Precision positioning of the sample is possible by combining two XY stages.
High-Speed Microscopy
For the first time ever, scientists from the Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology IPT in Aachen have succeeded in achieving 100 percent microscopic testing in the industrial environment. The piezo-based PIFOC® drive system from PI was decisive for this success.
Confocal Microscopy
Confocal microscopy is used to detect the structure of the sample surface through the shifting of the focal plane, for example in dermatology.
