Do I need a NanoScanZ Piezo Z stage system?
The NanoScanZ is a high accuracy focus system designed for high speed fusion (z-stacking) techniques. The NanoScanZ system has up to 1nm resolution and can complete a move in 10 microseconds. Standard focus motors (with and without encoders) are capable of providing Z-stacking up to 0.5um thicknesses with good accuracy, but are somewhat slower than the NanoScanZ.
