Nanosurf  CoreAFM
- value for money AFM  

Nanosurf's CoreAFM is a compact, cost-effective research AFM that offers a combination of functionality and simplicity by integrating the key components of AFM to realize versatility and user-friendliness.

Consisting of a flexure-guided scanner, a fully digital 32-bit controller, XYZ sample stage, camera, and air-flow protection in a single all-in-one unit results in a complete AFM system.  All the essential functions of modern AFM are integral components of the CoreAFM system; thus, only connecting power and USB is all that is needed for a fully operational CoreAFM.
 
  • Compact and robust atomic force microscope for stand alone and large stage operation
  • Easy and quick cantilever exchange and alignment reduces downtime
  • Automated batch measurements and scripting interface for system integration
