Comparing Stepper Motor And Servo Motor Microscope Stage Technologies

Stepper motor and Servo motor stages account for the majority of microscope stages sold worldwide for photonics applications.  The deciding factor when choosing between a stepper or servo motor stage in most applications isn’t that one type will work and the other won’t, but rather it is about determining which type gives you the most benefits for your application, whether that advantage is in speed, accuracy, integration effort, or cost.
