Do they say submicron accuracy anywhere on the website? I can only
find submicron steps, which isn't the same thing. The leadscrews we
have in the lab can't achieve submicron accuracy (and I work with
microscopes that image at the nanometer (=0.001 micron) scale, and
that's without the violent loads of machining), so I can't believe a
CNC machine can.
