PI News: Tripod & NEXLINE® Piezo Hexapod Positioner - Non Magnetic 6-Axis Stage, Precision Positioning System; P-911k031 6 Axes, Motion Control Stage; P911k031; NEXLINE® Tripod: Z-Tip/Tilt Stage

NEXLINE® Piezo Hexapod - Non Magnetic 6-Axis Precision Positioning System & Piezo Tripod Stage


PI has developed a custom, non-magnetic piezoelectric hexapod based on the N-215 NEXLINE® ultra-precision piezo motor drives. This Hexapod 6-axis positioning stage can be used in applications with very strong magnetic fields, ideal for synchrotron alignment equipment.

Preliminary Specifications:

  • 8” Aperture
  • Load 50kg
  • Low Profile: 140mm
  • Translation XYZ: 10mm
  • Rotation all axes: 6 °
