AFM Upgrades
Take your AFM to the next level with a closed-loop AFM system upgrade from nPoint. Our scanners are compatible with Agilent, Ambios and Veeco AFMs. We can provide custom solutions that meet any needs from extremely large scanning ranges to ultra-flat scanning.
The integration is transparent and does not require any AFM modifications. Our in-house AFM knowledge greatly facilitates custom integrations. We can provide AFM data to verify the performance of our scanners.

nPoint offers two and three axes closed-loop scanners that integrate easily with atomic force microscopes from Agilent, Veeco and Ambios (Quesant), as well as configurations that make use of
Nanonis systems.
One-click Zooming
Long-term Stability (piezo drift eliminated)
Wide selection of scanning ranges
As little as one nanomenter out-of-plane motion
Our closed-loop systems offer scanning ranges up to 400µm in X and Y axes and 100µm in the Z axis. They provide better than 99.95% linearity along with ultra low out-of-plane motion. These features significantly enhance the AFM capabilities while still delivering high resolution images.
