Micropositioners, Micropositioning Stages, Precision YY-Tables, Motion Stage Systems Nanopositioning and more...


PI provides a large variety of high-quality X, XY, and XYZ micropositioninong stages, for industrial customers, OEM and research. Both micropositioning and nanopositioning stages are offered. In addition to motorized micropositioners and Hybrid Piezo/Servo Motor Linear Translation stages the largest selection of Hexapod six-axis micropositioning stages are offered.

Linear micropositioners, XY-tables and rotary positioners can be combined into multi-axis systems. Piezo drives are available for upgrading the stages to providing better than 1nanometer resolution.

If speed and small dimensions are essential, piezo linear motor drives are often the best choice.
