DSM’s nanopositioning piezoelectric ZSA-1000C stage features flexure-guided motion over a 1mm vertical travel range for scanning, metrology, and inspection processes. The stable and stiff kinematic design promotes parallelism in the output motion with minimal roll and tilt as well as dynamic responsiveness for excellent position stability and control. The stage can be paired with DSM’s SA-500 for closed-loop control with a high-resolution capacitive probe to provide 20nm position stability and very stable velocity profiles over specified scan regions.
