High Resolution Manual Micromanipulators HS6 Micromanipulator Engineered for stability, and built on a twelve-pound steel plate, this instrument is chosen worldwide for high resolution micro-recording. such as patch clamping, and other research requiring solid, drift-free performance. A superior tool in its own right, HS6 serves equally well as a base for other precision microdrives. HS6 can be bolted directly to a lab fixture or vibration-free platform. Resolution M3301EH is extremely high — each graduation on its large micrometer electrode holder barrels indicates just 5 micron movements. Rack and pinion included drive, V-shaped guideways, and cross roller bearings give sure, repeatable movements without sideplay, slipping, or sticking. All contact parts are milled of hardened steel. A flexible ball-joint assembly allows the electrode to be positioned at any angle relative to the x, y, or z axis. The entire manipulator tilts forward to 25 degrees allowing rapid coarse adjustment of the electrode, and allowing cell penetration along the axis of any of the micrometers. Simple, precise, and durable, the HS6 will provide years of dependable performance.

Viewed microscopically, movement of the tooltip corresponds naturally to hand movement, so accurate M3301EH resolution is intuitive and quick. All fine adjustment can electrode holder be controlled by the joystick. Pivoting forward, backincluded ward, or laterally gives precise x-y adjustment. For added convenience, a separate coarse control lever is also provided for quick raising and lowering. A stop screw—which is set once resolution is achieved—eliminates refocusing and streamlines repetitive work by guiding the tip to its previous focussing plane. The stop screw also prevents the tool-tip from being broken during sudden lowering and eliminates downward drift—placement is stable enough for even extended use. Because the probe holder tilts a full 90°, the tool-tip pivots easily for precise positioning. Rack-and-pinion drive, V-shaped guideways, and cross roller bearings eliminate backlash, slipping, and sticking. All contact parts milled from hardened steel for precise performance and long life. Joystick travel: 0.35 mm to 3.5-mm, depending on reduction gear ratio setting (adjustable between 1:15 and 1:150). .
