QUAD 4-axis independent micromanipulator
The QUAD® micromanipulator from Sutter Instrument is a stand-alone motorised device with four independent axes, designed for in vivo recording. It incorporates a fourth coaxial axis for precise positioning of the electrode at the desired angle, with a travel of 30 mm. The other three axes each have a stroke of 25 mm. The QUAD® combines sub-micrometric precision, digital display, intuitive control via ROE (Rotary Optical Encoder), and robotic features for easy and efficient use in electrophysiology. Its compact, fanless controller takes up minimal bench space.
