WR-6

Three-axis Water Hydraulic Micromanipulator

Highly recommended for patch clamping from the microscope stage side.

Employing the water hydraulic system, which has a lower coefficient of expansion due to temperature changes, this model offers precise movement while minimizing drift by incorporating a 1:5 cartridge. In addition, it integrates both coarse and fine manipulation capabilities by featuring a manual coarse manipulator for each axis. The drum type control unit has a large handle for precise operation and high linear repeatability. Overall, design considerations are focused on precision movement and stability over long periods of time. The WR-6 is outstandingly versatile: when setting up, it is attached using the bar, but independent setup using a magnetic stand is also possible, as is attachment to the side of the microscope stage with an adaptor.

* For attachment to the microscope, P-1A height adjustment plate included and a suitable mounting adaptor is required (sold separately).

* Can be attached directly to the GJ-1 magnetic stand (sold separately).
