The Fix Stage is the solution!

After adjusting the position,the stage doesn’t move even though it doesn’t have a clamp!

  • Once the stage has been moved and its position has been adjusted,it can immediately be fixed in place, and there is no need to use a clamp.
  • Thanks to a uniquely developed special mechanism, the stage doesn't move after the position has been adjusted.
After the position has been adjusted, no movement can be seen on the indicator scale even when the face of the stage is grabbed and forcefully shaken.

What does it mean to not move after position adjustment?

  • Fix stages use a hex wrench for movement.
  • The stage hardly moves even when the stage surface is directly manipulated.It will not move even when it is not clamped.
