ProScan H1P4BX


Motorized High Resolution Stage For Evident BX and SZX Microscopes

The H1P4BX is a motorized XY stage for Evident/Olympus upright microscopes.

The most accurate and precise stage in the ProScan H101 range, it uses a 1 mm pitch ballscrew and 400 step motor drive configuration to provide four times the resolution of the H101A stage, making it ideal for applications that require reliable, short stage movements. Prior's patented Intelligent Scanning Technology (IST) optimizes stage accuracy and linearity.

The H1P4BX accommodates a variety of specimen types including glass slides, multiwell plates, semiconductor wafers, and metallurgical samples. Alternative drive configuration options may be available depending on your region.

This stage is compatible with Evident/Olympus CellSens Dimension, Stream Motion and PRECiV software (appropriate package required). 

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