High-Performance XY+Z Motion Subsystem for Precision Laser Materials Processing

The University of New Mexico is seeking to purchase a High-Performance XY+Z Motion Subsystem designed for precision laser materials processing. The system includes a Physik Instrumente (PI) V-781 XY-Stage, Ultra-High-Precision XY Motion, and a L-812 Compact High-Precision Direct Drive Linear Stage. The system is required for the university's laboratory's laser materials processing and optics/photonics research efforts. The procurement is being made as a sole source purchase due to the unique capabilities of the proposed vendor's goods and services. • The system must provide precise control of XY trajectories combined with high-performance Z motion. • The system must be compatible with the university's existing equipment and software. • The system must be able to deliver nanometer-level resolution, high straightness, and repeatable positioning. • The university has conducted a thorough market survey and contacted other vendors, but none were able to satisfy the required performance, integration, and value criteria.
