ProScan H117E1XD


Encoded Motorized High Performance Stage for Evident/Olympus IX3 Series Microscopes

The ProScan H117E1XD motorized XY stage is compatible with Evident/Olympus IX73 and IX83 inverted microscopes. 

It uses a 1 mm ballscrew, 400-step motor drive configuration, and linear encoders for exceptional long-range linearity. This makes the H117E1XD an excellent stage for long-term, multipoint time-lapse experiments that require both high-precision movements and high stability in one position over extended periods. 

Prior's patented Intelligent Scanning Technology (IST) optimizes stage accuracy and linearity. 

A flat top plate allows easy access to the sample for loading, compatibility with many stage-top incubation systems, and enables the use of peripheral equipment around the sample for complex imaging operations

The H117E1XD is compatible with Evident/Olympus CellSens Dimension software (appropriate package required). 

See the product compatibility tab for the full list of options available.
