Abstract: The invention relates to a precision positioning device comprising a base, moveable stage and four double parallelograms connecting the stage to the base. Each double parallelogram comprises six deformable vertices forming six pivots so that the stage can move in translation in a reference plane. Thanks to the four double parallelograms, the moveable stage is over-constrained so that the undesired rotational motions are very limited. The precision positioning device can further comprise a moveable platform connected to the moveable stage thanks to flexure strips. The moveable platform is over-constrained to only move in translation according to the Z axis.
