Kleindiek micromanipulator for life sciences
The MM3A-LS is an ultra-compact, flexible, and easy to use micromanipulator for patch clamp and similar applications using light microscopy. It's extreme stability and high precision make it a very good choice for a wide range of experiments in life sciences, especially for highly sensitive electrophysiological recordings.
Compact and flexible
- Small and practical
- Plug-and-play system with modular components
- Interfacing solutions for most light microscopes
- Fast setup and removal / User-friendly and easy to learn
- Effortless work with multiple manipulators
- Quick and exchange of useful plug-in tools including liquid injection, force measurement, electrical measurement, microgripper
Robust and stable
- Compact construction delivers higher resonance frequencies
- Excellent stability with Low drift (1 nm/min), virtually insusceptible to vibrations
- Reliable operation (one year endurance test)
- Fast pre-positioning by hand
Fast and precise
- No backlash or reversal play with sub-nanometer resolution (0.25 nm)
