Flex-Mount
The Essential AFM for Custom Integration
Flex-Mount is a unique AFM that can be configured to acquire high-resolution information on large, non-planar and demanding samples. The Flex-Mount solution combines the superior resolution and performance of the Nanosurf FlexAFM scan head with the integrability of the Nanosurf NaniteAFM. The result is a tip-scanning AFM that can easily be attached to one of Nanosurf’s large, custom-built motorized translation stages and is thus able to characterize the surface of samples with weights and dimensions virtually no other AFM system can handle.
- Proven performance and reliability in industrial settings
- Tip scanning design for maximal flexibility
- Automation capabilities
- Purpose-built for integration
- Measure samples of any weight and dimensions
Research-Grade Scan Head for Integration
Flex-Mount is based on the FlexAFM, Nanosurf’s most widely used research scan head. The flexure-based tip scanner provides flat and linear scanning, high resolution, and stable operation.
