MOTORIZED SYSTEMS

For precision below 10 micron in the x-axis and for automated 
measurements, the MM33 (or MM33-2) can be mounted on a 
micromanipulator Motor Stage (MS-15), which is positioned via the PC 
data acquisition and motor control software (SensorTrace Suite) and a 
motor controller (MC-1, MC-2, or MC-3) ⸀ 
With multiple Motor Stages automated measurements can be performed 
in 2D or 3D with extreme precision it all directions ⸀

Motorized sensor positioning is superior to manual positioning due to 
a higher level of precision, a longer operating distance, and ease of 
operation ⸀ A motorized unit consists of a micromanipulator (MM33/
MM33-2) mounted on a mechanical Motor Stage (MS-15) via a small 
adapter ⸀ The stage is controlled by PC software (SensorTrace Suite) via a 
motor controller (MC-1, MC-2, or MC-3) ⸀ 

A manual positioning system can always be upgraded to a motorized 
system ⸀ This requires a Motor Stage (MS-15) and a motor controller (MC-1, 
MC-2, or MC-3) ⸀
