Extreme
Accuracy. Reliability. Cleanliness.

Scientific experiments are projects which often have an uncertain outcome. The reliable solutions provided by Phytron are thus all the more important – for moving optical elements in measurement technology, for example, or for adjusting a mirror in a particle accelerator or transporting frozen samples in liquid nitrogen at below  -200°C. The combination of all sorts of extreme requirements is a challenge that Phytron also meets in the fields of optics and analysis technology with individual solutions, high levels of precision and the finest step resolution.

Another Phytron stepper motor on Mars

With the landing of the rover Perseverance, the fifth stepper motor from Phytron GmbH is active on Mars. It is part of the SuperCam instrument, which uses a camera, laser and spectrometer to analyze the chemical composition of stones and soil material. See the SuperCam Autofocus Mechanism document for more details or visit the NASA Website for an animated video to see how the SuperCam works.

NASA and ESA have previously relied on our stepper motors in the InSight Lander and Curiosity missions.

We are proud to be a small cog in the support of space missions.
