TRIO-245 3-axis narrow micromanipulator

Sutter Instrument’s TRIO-245 is a standalone three-axis motorised micromanipulator designed for in vitro and in vivo electrophysiological recordings in space-limited configurations. Its three main axes (X, Y and Z) each offer 25 mm of travel, and a 4ᵉ diagonal synthetic axis can be configured via software at any angle between 0 and 90° for optimal microelectrode positioning. Its robust mechanical construction and compact, quiet integrated ROE controller ensure high stability, minimal drift and maximum user comfort even in crowded rigs.
