MS-2000 FT - XY Automated Microscope Stage and Controller

The MS-2000 FT (Flat-Top) Stage is a high-precision automated microscope stage made by Applied Scientific Instrumentation (ASI). It is designed to provide a high-resolution and highly repeatable means of controlling the X/Y position of a microscope stage, and is compatible with a wide range of microscope brands and models, including Leica, Nikon, Evident/Olympus and Zeiss. The MS-2000 controller provides joystick control and facilitates communication via USB or RS-232 serial, and supports TTL synchronization. ASI products are supported by software from most scope manufacturers, as well as Micro-Manager, Nebula, VisiView, Inscoper, Slidebook, MetaMorph, and more (SDK available). The MS-2000 is ideal for: Automated Multipoint and Tile Imaging Live Cell Imaging, Organism Tracking, and Time-Lapse Microscopy Raster and Serpentine Scanning Micromanipulation and Microinjection MS-2000 Stage Specifications (standard configuration) Parameter Value X- and Y-axis range of travel 120 mm × 75 mm X- and Y-axis resolution (encoder step) 22 nm X- and Y-axis RMS repeatability < 700 nm X- and Y-axis maximum velocity 7 mm/s Max recommended load (6.35mm screw pitch) 5 kg Many options are available, including piezo plates for Z motion, linear encoders for increased accuracy, stage wings for mounting, and alternative lead screw pitches.
