Digital Stereotaxic Instrument (Dual Arm)
The Orchid’s Stereotaxic Instrument is ideal for researchers in need of a versatile, reliable instrument for stereotaxic procedures with small animals. Precision alignment ensures accurate placement of electrodes, Syringe, cannula and other devices. The time-proven ‘U’-Frame design concept, sturdy construction, and adaptability to most model species make this the best choice for a stereotaxic instrument.
Feature
The Digital Stereotaxic Instrument (Dual Arm) is mainly composed of three parts: a Biocontainment ventilator, Biocontainment cage and rack
-
Suitable for different animal adapters, including rats, mice, and guinea pigs.
-
The moving range of the dual operating arms reaches 120 mm up and down, left and right, and front and back.
-
The dual operating arms can move ±90 degrees in both front–back and left–right directions.
-
The horizontal direction can rotate 360 degrees and be locked at any position.
-
Operating accuracy of the dual operating arms on the X, Y, and Z axes: 0.01 mm.
-
The ear rod uses a spiral propulsion structure for easy skull fixation.
-
The micro-propellant provides upper and lower operating accuracy of 0.01 mm.
-
The operating arm features a micrometer-level dial for easier reading.
-
Compatible with optional accessories such as a microinjection pump, micro-camera, and cranial drill.
-
The base uses a honeycomb thread design, allowing installation of dual operating arms or other equipment for various experiments.
-
Laser scale and open base design make readings more convenient.
-
Maintains good accuracy and flexibility across different temperatures.
-
The specially treated surface material is easy to clean and maintains long-term cleanliness.
