Piezostage creator

PIEZOCONCEPT is the leading provider of nanopositioners dedicated to applications including, but not limited to Super Resolution Microscopy, Optical trapping and Atomic Force Microscopy. Our products have been used by renowned scientists engaged in leading edge research in world-class universities and institutes.

For many years, capacitive sensors have dominated the market. Unfortunately this technology has shown some limits. We took it upon ourselves to create a new way to achieve greater stability and linearity in order to match the greater resolution requirements of modern microscopy techniques.

Our goal was to find an elegant, cost efficient solution, to provide accurate and stable positioning. We developed a range of ultra-stable nanopositioners, dedicated to a wide number of applications, with significant advantages over products already on the market. Our silicon sensor technology provides such an advantage. This technology outperforms high-end capacitive sensors thanks to their exceptionally high signal. As a result, our stages offer picometric stability and subnanometric (or sub-nanoradian) noise floor through their simple yet efficient flexure design and ultra low-noise electronics.

Customer testimonials

We’ve been using the SLR300 piezostages from PIEZOCONCEPT as an integral component of our Tilt light sheet imaging system and have been very satisfied with both the performance and support. The SLR300 is an ideal choice in terms of speed, travel range, stability and price. And since the SLR300 is compatible with Applied Scientific Instrumentation electronics, we are able to control the different technologies (DC motor stage, piezostage) with one, very user-friendly controller. Additionally, PIEZOCONCEPT has been very accommodating to special requests, such as when we wanted an option for a longer travel (500µm). Within a few days, PIEZOCONCEPT provided us with an affordable option that fit our needs. We are delighted to work with the team at PIEZOCONCEPT because they are very easy to work with, they respond quickly and they have high quality products. We are proud to use the PIEZOCONCEPT SLR300 in our light sheet microscope system: https://www.mizarimaging.com/
