MS-2000 Small Stage

The MS-2000 XY stage has been specifically designed to provide a high resolution, and highly repeatable, means of controlling the X and Y position of a microscope stage. All axes derive their precise control through the use of closed-loop DC servomotors employing high-resolution rotary encoders for positioning feedback. By using closed-loop control of the stage position, there is no chance that the stage will become lost, as can occur with open-loop micro-stepped stages after a number of moves and direction changes. The MS-2000 XY stage utilizes crossed-roller slides, a high-precision lead screw, and zero-backlash miniature geared DC servomotors for smooth and accurate motion. The microprocessor-controlled MS-2000 control unit provides for RS-232 and USB communication with a host computer.

Features

  • Closed-loop DC servo control of the XY-axes for precise positioning and repeatability
  • Wide dynamic speed range with XY joystick control
  • Backlit LCD display shows the coordinates
  • Works with ASI’s proven Z-axis drives
  • Proven operation with many popular software packages
  • “Zero” and “Home” button for simple stand-alone operations
  • Microprocessor control with RS-232 serial and USB communications
  • Compact ergonomic tabletop control unit size is 6″D x 9″W x 3″H (16½ x 23 x 9 cm)
  • Suitable for smaller upright microscopes, stand-alone, OEM, and specialty applications
