Large transmission positioning system for high-precision screening tasks

This high-precision XY-Z positioning system with large aperture enables measurement from both sides or by means of transmitted light. A customized microscope, camera or sensor can be attached in the Z-direction. The microtiter well plates are moved on the KDT600-EDML XY stage under the Z-axis. Up to 12 well plates can be placed with a travel distance of 350 mm above the large transmitted light of 400 mm. Transillumination of the samples from below ensures perfect screening of bioreactions.

Ideal for life science and biotech applications as well as drug screening in the pharmaceutical industry

Reduced loading cycles due to the large aperture of 400 x 400 mm

Short scan times due to accelerations of up to 3 m/s2 and top speeds of 500 mm/s, even in start-stop mode

Version for clean room ISO 14644-1 (up to class 1 on request)

Cost-optimized performance comparable to air bearing systems

Optionally expandable:

Dual motors in the bottom axis for identical acceleration values in X and Y
Scalable to 8 or 16 plates
Base plate made of granite or aluminum
Chemical resistant, absorption free surfaces
Customization for synthetic, biological or living samples
Ready-to-use motion controller incl. sample software

Cost-optimized alternative for air bearing systems

The use of polished cross roller bearings and ground plates achieves a repeatability of ± 0.15 µm in straightness and flatness. The positioning system is designed for maximum repeatability and, by means of compensation, achieves accuracies previously reserved exclusively for air bearing systems. With comparable performance, it is significantly more cost-effective. When maintenance is required, the system can simply be disconnected from the housed cable guide. This shortens maintenance and simplifies integration.

Individual extensions and customizations

Engineering services include the fitting of the systems to your structure and the desired controlls. Furthermore, we develop prototypes and like to adapt the systems to the environmental requirements of your application particle emission, radiation, temperature, precision special parts manufacturing, working height, collision protection, safety concept, compensation factor and filter, sensor mounting, brake, decoupling, special lubrication, special colors, holders, adapters, special motors with pharmaceutical approval, comprehensive documentation, test protocoll, llife cycle tests
