Park FX40 The Automatic AFM
A New Class of Atomic Force Microscope
Get the highest resolution images and most accurate data autonomously, thereby accelerating your research. Unlike others, Park FX40 takes care of everything automatically: from tip pick up to landing to full autonomous scanning of the sample at a click of a button. It does this by infusing robotics, AI and machine learning into its groundbreaking FX system.
Sail Through your Research and Development:
- The first dual-camera system ever adopted in research AFM
- Machine learning automation with updatable data
Auto Probe Identification
The Probe Recognition Camera reads the QR code imprinted on the chip carrier of a newly loaded probe and extracts and displays all pertinent information on each of the tips available, including the type, model, application, and usage. This enables you to quickly select the best probe tip for each job.
Auto Probe Exchange
With automated probe exchange, you can now replace old probes easily and safely in full automation. Harnessing the convenience of an 8-probe cassette, along with a magnetically controlled mechanism, the Park FX40 autonomously mounts the probes.
Auto Beam Alignment
Automatic Beam Alignment positions the laser beam onto the proper location of a cantilever and further optimizes the PSPD position both vertically and laterally. It shifts the X,Y and Z axis for clearer images, with no distortion, all autonomously at the click of a button.
Easy Sample Navigation
With the newly added sample camera, you can automatically pair probes to sample locations. The sample camera effortlessly locates the most relevant spot for scanning. Park SmartScan allows you to surf the sample intuitively by controlling the motorized stages through its sample navigation window.
Environmental Sensors for Self-diagnostics
SmartScan displays and stores data from sensors, which measures essential environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, levelling and vibration. This allows you to compare your scanned images with different environmental channels, providing further environmental indicators for system diagnosis
Auto Set-up for Imaging
Park FX does all your setup with the simple click of a button, automatically changing and replacing its own tips, to avoid any contamination or user-related errors. Operators are offered tip choices including the type, model, application, and usage
