Stereotaxic Manipulator

New line-up of SMM series: coarse manipulation in Z axis

Coarse manipulator for stereotaxic instruments focusing on driving outside the animal's brain

The driving by Z-axis control knob: approximately 4 mm per rotation makes faster adjustments for leveling bregma and lambda, and faster retracting / returning from the dura mater, which will improve efficiency of experiment

For operations inside the brain, One-axis Motorized Stereotaxic Micromanipulator MDS-1 and hydraulic manipulator can be added optionally^*. The X-axis is equipped with coarse control knob, which is the same as the Z-axis. The Y-axis (anterior / posterior direction) is equipped with fine control knob

The upper body of SMM-200C can be tilted with dual angles: AP and ML directions simultaneously
