ProScan HE38BX (Evident) Encoded Motorized XY Stage


Automated Stage With 8 Slide Capacity For Evident/Olympus BX and SZX Upright Microscopes (240 mm x 71 mm)

The HE38BX is an encoded, motorized XY stage adapted for Evident/Olympus upright microscopes.

It uses a 2 mm pitch ballscrew and 200-step motor drive to cover its large travel area quickly, and features Prior’s patented Intelligent Scanning Technology (IST) to optimize stage accuracy and linearity. Long-range repeatability is also enhanced by linear encoders providing closed-loop positioning.

The HE38BX fits up to eight 75 mm x 25 mm microscope slides and offers extended lateral travel for imaging large samples, such as PCBs, or arrays of multiple samples.

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.
