SMM-100

Stereotaxic Micromanipulator

XYZ. 3-axes. Fine control knobs.

The SMM-100 Stereotaxic Micromanipulator is made for not only the animal experiments with traditional method of acute/chronic experiments or electro-physiological recording, but also new method of multi-photostimulations and silicon probes. SMM-100 is equipped with Y-axis control knob which makes the fine adjustment in the AP direction possible. The upper body of SMM-100 is switchable in either AP or ML direction when using it with tilting angle.

IMS-30 on SMM-100 installed with SMM-A

When tilting the micromanipulator toward ML direction, the attachment SMM-A is recommended.

When the manipulator SMM-100/200 is tilted in the ML direction, the end of the holder (electrode tip) may far off from animal's head. The attachment SMM-A is designed to attach a holder on the side of manipulator, so it enables the holder position without operating the X-axis. To this end, the holder (electrode tip) can be set to the animal's head while maintaining driving distance of the X-axis.
