ProScan H117N1M4 Motorized XY Stage


High Performance Stage for Nikon MA200 Inverted Microscope (114 mm x 75 mm travel)

The ProScan H117N1M4 motorized XY stage is compatible with the Nikon MA200 inverted microscope.

It uses a 1 mm ballscrew, 400-step motor drive configuration to provide high step resolution. This makes the H117N1M4 a good choice for stitching large images of industrial samples at high magnification, and precisely positioning features of interest at the center of the field of view.

The H117E1M4 encoded version is also available which uses linear encoders for exceptional long-range repeatability, making it an ideal stage for precisely scanning and even measuring large industrial samples. 

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

The stage features a mounting position for circular Nikon sample mounts and is designed to be compact to match the design of the MA200 frame.

The H117E1M4 is compatible with Nikon NIS Elements software (appropriate package required).

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