    BioPrecision 2ex Motorized Extended Travel Stages from Ludl

     

    Whether due to a complex imaging protocol, long term experiment or unattended throughput requirements the BioPrecision2ex Extended Travel stages offer the ability to scan large areas or multiple slides with high performance in a package that is compatible with most conventional microscopes. There are two standard extended travel stages; the 250mm x 100mm stage with the capacity for up to 8 slides and the 150mm x 100mm stage which offers the ability to mount 5 slides to the slide holder. Both stages feature ergonomic low profile leadscrew housings, high reliability stepper motor drive, cross roller anti-migration guide bearings and options for either rotary or linear encoders.

    Features
    • Adjustable end-limits
    • univrsal mounting flange
    • Linear/rotary encoder options
    • Low profile

    The lightweight, efficent design provides an increased operating envelope without sacrificing precision and performance. The oversized specimen insert platform allows for free use of high magnification objective lenses without risk of interference. For easy mounting a unique adapter ring ensures that the stage mounts to each microscope at the correct height and with proper clearance. Encoder options allow for the stage performance to be tailored to specific requirements and price range.

    Linear encoders provide the highest stability and accuracy for demanding applications. Applications such as extended time-lapse, image tiling and distance measurement yield the best results when linear encoders provide the position feedback. The BioPrecision2ex linear encoder option is embedded into the stage rather than simply mounted as an afterthought to provide high precision performance without adversely affecting microscope compatibility. Rotary encoders add increased reliability and positioning repeatability. The BioPrecision2ex rotary encoder mounts directly to the leadscrew shaft effectively eliminating motor hysteresis and stepping errors. While the overall stage accuracy is still very dependent upon the precision leadscrew, the rotary encoder improves sub-micron repeatability and accuracy in addition to adding robustness by eliminating the chance of unexpected position loss or motor stalling.

    System Configuation:

    A typical BioPrecision2ex system includes a MAC 5000 controller, BioPrecision2ex stage and specimen holder. Each stage includes the part number 99A196 8 position holder for the 250x100mm stage and 99A178 5 position slide holder for the 150x100mm stage.

    Standard slide holder options include the part number 99A196 8 position holder for the 250x100mm stage and the 99A178 5 position slide holder for the 150x100mm stage.

    The basic XY stage system can be expanded by adding MAC 5000 modules and automation accessories from our catalog. Contact your LEP dealer for a comprehensive list of components and stage accessories.
