Product Overview
Product Introduction
P11.XY200Z300 piezoelectric nanopositioning stage has the following
advantages:
High-performance piezo stack:
P11.XY200Z300 piezoelectric nanopositioning stage is driven by a highly
reliable ceramic actuator with a fully insulated structure, so its performance
and service life are far better than the traditional actuator. The insulating
layer can effectively prevent the piezoelectric ceramic from being damaged
when exposed to moisture. Therefore, the stability of piezoelectric ceramics
can be guaranteed under extreme circumstances. Compared with traditional
driving mechanism, there are no transmission parts and friction. Therefore,
ceramic actuator has the characteristics of no rebound, no maintenance, and no
wear, etc.
Flexible hinge structure:
P11.XY200Z300 piezoelectric nanopositioning stage adopting flexible hinge
mechanism has advantages of no friction, high positioning accuracy. Flexible
hinge is an element not affected by static and dynamic friction, based on the
elastic deformation of metal material (e.g., steel) , there is no rolling and
sliding parts. Flexible unit has very high load capacity and stiffness. Hinge
guide needs no maintenance and no wear and tear. Suitable for a wide range of
temperatures, no lubricating oil is required.
Strain Sensor：
Strain sensor detects the position information by its own expansion. They are
fixed in the proper position of the transmission part and measure the
displacement of the moving part. This type of position measurement is made by
contact and indirect measurement. So the displacement of the moving platform
is measured by measuring lever, guide hinge, or piezoelectric ceramic stack.
The sensor is connected by full bridge without drift and can accurately do the
position in the nanometer range.
The stroke of P11.XY200Z300 piezo nanopositioning stage can reach the
displacement of X180/Y180/Z300um. The flexure hinge mechanism ensures that the
XYZ-dimensional motion has no coupling, and features no mechanical friction,
fast response speed, high repeatable positioning accuracy, high flexibility,
easy to operate, so it can meet different applications. This product can also
be customized according to the needs.
P11.XY200Z300 is mainly used in biotechnology, interferometry, quality
detection, optical detection, nano-positioning, microscopy and imaging, image
processing and other fields.
Product Features
- Large displacement in XYZ.
- Closed-loop strain gauge sensor, high positioning accuracy.
- Mainly used in low frequency or static application.

- Operating temperature : -20~80℃
- Relative humidity : <60%
- Recommended voltage range is 0~120V for long-term use and lifetime
Installation and operation
Safety check should be carried out before installation, such as whether the connection wire is damaged or broken, whether the drive power supply is grounded, etc.
Installation and Precautions
- Make sure the mounting surface is flat.
- Use M3 screws to mount the P11.XY200Z300 and tighten.
- Mount a load and tighten it properly to achieve high positioning accuracy.
- Connect P11.XY200Z300’s connector to the corresponding interface of the controller according to the identification on the leads.
The connection mode of LEMO connector is shown in the following figure.
The P11.XY200Z300 mounting diagram is shown below:
Load
When mounting the load, ensure that the load quality is less than the maximum
load capacity of P11.XY200Z300, and try to mount the load in the center of the
moving surface. The correct position to mount the load is shown below.
For the protection of the product, we do not recommend that the load is too high. If a higher load must be used, please appropriately low the position of the center of gravity of the load.
The wrong mounting way is shown in the figure below:
It is forbidden to mount the load on one side of the moving platform, which will cause serious damage to the product, as shown in the figure below.
Too long screws selected in the fastening and connection process will lead to failure of mounting or part of bolts will be exposed, which will scratch the product and affect the motion accuracy of the product. If the bolt is too short, the connection will be weak, and it is easy to be loosened. Loosening during operation will damage the internal structure of the product.
We recommend using the connection method shown in the figure below:
Please do not connect in this way as shown below:
Notice:
- When mounting the load, tighten the load slowly. The torque should not be too large to prevent damage to the mechanism.
- Avoid stretching and bending cables.
- Use the dedicated cable provided by CoreMorrow to connect P11.XY200Z300 and the controller.
- Do not connect via an extension cable casually, if you need a longer cable, please contact CoreMorrow.
Operating
Please reconfirm the following information before turning on the power:
- The operating environment meets the operating environment requirements of P11.XY200Z300.
- Fixed screws must be tightened.
After the above information is confirmed, relevant controller operations can be carried out:
- Please read the user manual of the controller carefully before operation, and then start the controller.
- Set the controller’ output voltage to zero first.
- Check no abnormal phenomenon, then input voltage value (via keyboard or analog control) according to specified input voltage range.
- Operating normally within the rated voltage range of piezoelectric ceramics (0~120V, maximum 150V).
- After use, please carry out voltage reset operation.
Please take light steps when P11.XY200Z300 in operation, do not knock the product, so as not to affect the use of the product or even damage the product.
The resolution of the product itself is unlimited, and the resolution depends on the performance of the controller. In order to achieve better motion precision, it is recommended to use our company’s supporting controller. Please refer to the user manual of the controller for the specific operation to ensure correct operation before relevant operation.
Notes：
- Do not remove the grounding protection during the operation. If you need to remove it temporarily, please reconnect the grounding protection before starting it again.
- The driving voltage shall not exceed the voltage range of P11.XY200Z300(150V).
- If any abnormal noise or oscillation occurs during use, turn off the power immediately and check the parameter setting.
