XL-T MultiCentre
The entry-level single bellows compact stage
Configurable Analytical Stages for Advanced Surface Analysis
Our configurable analytical stages are designed to deliver precise, versatile sample positioning and manipulation for a wide range of ultra-high vacuum (UHV) and surface analysis applications. Offering up to five axes of motion, these high-precision stages enable accurate sample alignment, positioning, and transfer for demanding analytical and research environments. The MultiCentre series is specifically engineered to accommodate a variety of surface analysis sample holders, including pucks, flags, and ESCA stubs, providing exceptional flexibility across multiple instrument platforms. To enhance performance and operational efficiency, various motorisation and automation options are available, allowing for remote operation, improved repeatability, and seamless integration into advanced analytical systems and automated workflows.
Key Features
