Disrupting XY Motion in Automated Microscopy

May 12, 2022
This whitepaper compares precision positioning technologies to demonstrate how new embedded controls linear stages are transforming automated digital microscopy.

Modern life-science and diagnostic instruments are becoming more precise, and applications are requiring finer imaging. High speed TDI scanning in a fluorescence microscope cannot be accomplished with dated stepper systems. For field to field imaging applications there is a trend toward higher throughput and more precise motion within instruments. Dover Motion recently introduced the SmartStage™ XY series for single axis or stacked XY use in response to the increasing throughput, resolution, and stability requirements of automated microscopy.
