High-Precision Focus Axes for Automated Microscopy Systems

Getting the lens into precise focus is just as critical as positioning the sample correctly, which is why WEISS builds dedicated focus axes for high-precision focusing as a standard part of its microscopy automation range. A customer-specific focus axis, complete with an optical encoder and pneumatic weight compensation, has already been proven in live automated microscopy applications, giving manufacturers exact, repeatable focus control station after station. For automated microscopy systems running continuously, that pneumatic weight compensation matters because it keeps focus performance consistent regardless of load variation on the axis.
