Z-Stack Imaging & Focusing: Faster with Piezo Z-Scanners
PIFOC® piezo-actuated Z-scanners achieve typically 10 times higher focusing speed & precision than motorized drives and thus provide higher-quality images faster.

Scanning the Objective
The compact, light and stiff objective scanner design provides very fast response and does not disturb the sample.

Compatible with All Major Image Acquisition Packages
PIFOC® controllers come with a high-bandwidth analog interface for extremely fast response and compatibility with all major image acquisition packages.
