OptiScan ES107NTE stepper motor stage


Economical Motorized Stage For Nikon Inverted Microscopes

The ES107NTE is an entry-level motorized XY stage adapted for Nikon TE2000, TE200 and TE300 inverted microscopes.

An adapted model for the TS100 and MA100 microscopes is also available on request: see the product compatibility tab for all options available.

The stage suits applications requiring medium to low performance and is an affordable choice for microscope automation. 

It accommodates a variety of specimen types including glass slides, multi-well plates, and petri dishes. 

Due to its lower cost and ease of use, the ES107NTE is best suited to microscopists starting to explore multi-position imaging or stitching, or wanting to move control of their stage to ergonomic joysticks such as the CS200XY.
