H116 heavy load 8-inch travel motorized XY stage for Nikon industrial microscopes.

ProScan HE16/2 (Nikon) Large Format Encoded Motorized XY Stage


Heavy Load 8-inch Travel Stage for Nikon Industrial Microscopes (255 mm x 215 mm)

The ProScan HE16/2 encoded motorized XY stage is adapted for Nikon L200 and L300 industrial microscopes.

It has a long travel range and 25 kg load capacity for scanning large, heavy samples such as 8-inch semiconductor wafers, flat panel displays and printed circuit boards up to 200 mm diameter.

The HE16/2 (Nikon) has linear encoders for exceptional long-range repeatability and a 2 mm ballscrew for a balance of speed and resolution. Prior’s patented Intelligent Scanning Technology (IST) to enhance accuracy and linearity. It scans large industrial samples reliably and efficiently.

Other drive configurations for increased speed may be available depending on your region.

It is compatible with transmitted light applications and provides easy access for loading samples.

This stage is compatible with Nikon NIS Elements software (appropriate package required).
