Objective1. Performance evaluation of individual stage
movements of meso-micro-nano machine tools in the micro and nano scale range.
2. Linear and angular errors of state-of-the-art hybrid drive translational stage has been examined by laser interferometer.
3. To exploit full potentials of scanning probe microscope to take nano scale measurement of 3D surface topography, high precision nano positioning stage are essential for testing.

Conclusions
• To get the best performance, there is a definite ratio between incremental step and velocity.
• Future work can be done to get the best ratio using design of experiment.
• There is some problem of linear positioning between 65mm to 85mm. It may be due to errors in guide mechanism.
