RoBoMate™-Digital NanoManipulation System	Virtual Point Technology™ for RoboMate™

RoboMate™ is the world's first combined angular-linear motorized positioning system. The system is the first of its kind to allow the probe/tool to be precisely positioned at variable angles (2 arc sec resolution) with respect to the target sample. Using DTI's Virtual Point™ technology the tip of the probe/tool can remain fixed at a specific point whilst it's angle of approach with respect to the target sample can be varied continuously. A linear motor allows movement of the probe/tool along its axes.

FEATURES:

NTS NanoDirect™ is a unique piezoelectric translation stage with nanometer resolution and long travel distance (10-100 mm). NTS is based on a proprietary design rotary motor and works in synchronized closed and open loop modes. The NTS series combines its unprecedented resolution, accuracy and long travel range, with up to 3 kg load capacity. The device is the first of its kind to be based entirely on an advanced DSP-platform using a Windows-XP GUI.

• The NTS NanoDirect™ is a state-of-the-art nanopositioning system that combines unprecedented long-travel (10 mm - 100 mm), nanometer resolution (0.4 nm) and long-term stability (<2 nm drift/hr) @ 20°.
• Realisation of any Motion Concept and Customizable Design Principle with help of a precise hybrid (rotational and linear) motorized positioning system.
• The NTS NanoDirect™ software-controlled nanopositioning system resolves these problems by combining unprecedented resolution of 0.4 nm
• An integral part of the system is the NanoDirect™ controller designed on a proprietary DSP platform, enabling a wide dynamic-range and high measurement accuracy in both open loop and close loop mode.
• Multi-channel controller/Windows®-XP GUI, velocity range (stepped to continuous 0.5 nm/s to 2000 mm/s)
• Rapid response time (10 msec) combined with high load-capacity (3 kg)
• Optional joystick allows manual XYZ control.
• Three NTS stage models available with extended travel ranges; NTS10 (10 mm), NTS20 (20 mm) and NTS100 (100 mm)
• Software Driven NanoMotion with Full Digital Control enabling NanoSmoothness
• for Biology, Medicine, MEMS, Semiconductor, Photonics, Fiber Optics, Microelectronics Applications

NTS NanoDirect™ Control System	NTS NanoDirect™ Application Software

NTS NanoDirect™ Controller and NTS NanoDirect™ Application Software for New Generation of Nanopositioning Piezoelectric Linear Translation Stages with Long Travel Distances available from DTI.

FEATURES:

• An integral part of the NTS NanoDirect system is the NTS NanoDirect controller
• Available in either 1, 2 or 3-channel configurations
• The internal architecture of the NTS NanoDirect controller is based entirely on digital signal processing (DSP)
• Enabling a wide dynamic range and a very high measurement accuracy.
• The system is highly portable and operates from a 12 Volt DC power supply.
• The NTS NanoDirect application software enables to choose between software control, and manual control via joystick.
