Miniature hexapod


PI (Physik Instrumente), a manufacturer of precision parallel kinematics motion control systems, has released a miniature hexapod. Two versions are available for standard conditions and for vacuum applications. The new M-811 miniature


hexapod measures only 130mm in diameter and 115mm in height. It can handle loads up to 5kg and position them in all six degrees of freedom with sub-micrometer precision. The actuator resolution is 0.04µm with repeatability of ±0.5µm, while velocity of 10mm/s is possible. Like all PI parallel kinematic


hexapod positioners, the miniature vacuum hexapod comes bundled with software and a highly specialised digital controller with high-speed Ethernet connectivity. Programming and commanding

lamps for uV/vis spectroscopy


Heraeus Noblelight has introduced its new D2plus model deuterium- based light sources for analytical applications such as UV/visible spectrometry and HPLC or UHPLC. The D2plus lamps offer high throughput and precision with


lifetimes of up to 2,000 hours and low optical noise. The lamps include the company’s Enhanced Lifetime Performance technology, which guarantees 50 per cent more initial intensity and more than twice the residual intensity of conventional deuterium lamps. www.heraeus-noblelight.com

the hexapod is simple and straight- forward, as all positions are conveniently given in Cartesian coordinates (XYZ, Theta X, Theta Y, Theta Z). Parallel-kinematics positioning


systems have several advantages over conventional stacked multi- axis positioners. All six actuators directly affect one common platform, signifi cantly reducing mass and inertia. Moreover, there is no accumulation of the lateral and angular run-out errors of the individual axes. Unlike rotation stages and goniometers, which come with a fi xed centre of rotation, the PI hexapod concept lets the user set and change the pivot any time via software. www.pi.ws
