Large Format Motorised Stages by Prior Scientific

The range of large format stages from Prior Scientific offers end users a powerful combination of high precision, convenience and a large format area for users of upright microscopes – ideal for imaging large tissue sections or other biological samples.

Using a motorised stage increases precision and allows the possibility of automation. The stages can accept linear encoders to further enhance precision . An S-shaped acceleration curve ensures smooth movement, reducing disruption to samples and patented Intelligent Scanning technology assures the accuracy of the stage. The stages can accept either a glass or aluminium plate.
