PI Introduces Nanopositioning and Micropositioning Essentials With Short Delivery and Volume Savings
This curated Essentials product line features high-precision building blocks engineered for sub-micron and nanometer-level motion control.

AUBURN, MA, Sept. 9, 2025 – PI (Physik Instrumente) , a global leader in precision motion control and nano-positioning technologies, offers its Nanopositioning & Micropositioning Essentials portfolio, delivering core components with reduced lead times and volume discounts tailored for OEMs in research, automation and advanced manufacturing.

Fast access to core precision components

This curated Essentials product line features high-precision building blocks engineered for sub-micron and nanometer-level motion control. Most products are available for fast delivery, while OEM customers benefit from volume pricing to help scale their development and production efforts efficiently. "With the Nanopositioning & Micropositioning Essentials series, we’re putting precision and faster delivery front and center for research, OEMs, and integrators," said Walter Silvesky, president of PI Americas. "This program underscores our commitment to not only cutting-edge motion control but also improved accessibility and scalability for our customers.”

Highlights of featured product categories

Product highlights include hexapods, precision linear and rotary stages, precision actuators, fast focus stages and piezo nanopositioning stages—covering the essential building blocks for nanopositioning and micropositioning applications.

High resolution linear actuators

: Compact piezo actuators, stepper motor actuators, and servo motor actuators

Hexapods:

Industrial 6-axis hexapod positioning systems that deliver synchronized six degree-of freedom motion with sub-micrometer precision—perfect for alignment, metrology, and 24/7 automation tasks.

Fast focus stages for metrology and microscopy:

Precision stages with voice-coil and piezo motors, optimized for rapid focal adjustments in optical and metrology setups—ideal when high speed and accuracy are essential.

Motorized linear stages:

High-precision linear translation stages powered by direct-drive linear motors, stepper motors and servo motors

Motorized rotary stages:

High-precision rotary stages powered by direct-drive torque motors, worm-gear stepper motors and servo motors

Piezo flexure stages:

Frictionless, capably guiding sub-nanometer motion through piezo-driven flexure mechanisms—ideal for microscopy, interferometry, and demanding scanning applications.

Supporting PI’s market-leading capabilities

PI’s Essentials program underscores its industry strength, built from decades of expertise in photonics, semiconductors, microscopy, metrology, laser processing and beyond. With deep technical support and a wide spectrum of motion solutions—from air bearings to hexapods—PI empowers customers to employ the best technological solution to each application challenge.
