Motorized Miniature Screw Actuators
Physik Instrumente (PI) off ers two new, vacuum-compatible versions of its compact N-470 PiezoMike precision screw-type actuator. Providing a positional resolution of 20 nm and travel ranges between ¼ in. and 1 in., the actuators are available for ambient applications and in high-vacuum (HV, 10-6 Torr) and ultrahigh-vacuum (UHV, 10-9 Torr) confi gurations.

The CeramPump® QDX hazardous duty metering pump from Fluid Metering is well suited for methanol metering for wastewater denitrifi cation due to its valveless design. The pump has only one moving part in contact with the process fl uid, a rotating and reciprocating ceramic piston. Similar to conventional piston pumps, the piston’s reciprocation performs the pumping function. The piston simultaneously rotates during the pumping cycle and is synchronized to alternately open and close the inlet and outlet ports of the pump eff ectively functioning as a valve.

Automated Digital Microscope
The Smartzoom 5 automated digital microscope from ZEISS features a one-of-a-kind operating concept, which makes operation as easy as possible. The system comprises an optical engine (zoom, camera, and illumination), a stand with sample stage, objective lenses, the operating unit, and software. It is equally suited to conducting failure analyses, i.e.,
the close examination of a defective part, as well as routine inspections, during which the same material sample needs to be repeatedly inspected using the same workfl ow.

Inspire™ from Bruker is the fi rst integrated scanning probe microscopy (SPM) infrared system for 10-nm spatial resolution in chemical and materials property mapping. The system incorporates proprietary PeakForce IR™ mode to enable nanoscale IR refl ection and absorption mapping for a wide range of applications, including the characterization of microphases and their interfaces in polymer blends, plasmons in the 2-D electron gas of graphene, and chemical heterogeneity in complex materials and thin fi lms. The system features sensitivity down to molecular monolayers, even on samples not amenable to standard atomic force microscopy techniques.
