NARISHIGE PC-100 vertical stretchers
Narishige’s PC-100 is a vertical drawing machine for the precise manufacture of glass micropipettes and microelectrodes, with tips ranging from 10 µm to 0.1 µm. The stretching process is gravity-operated, automatically in one or two steps, and parameters can be adjusted to obtain a variety of shapes and diameters. The digital display allows temperature and tension control, while the acrylic shroud protects the micropipettes from air movement during operation. The PC-100 replaces models PC-10, PP-830, PP-83 and PB-7, offering greater flexibility and functionality.
