The Force measurement system is an accessory to the micromanipulator that allows you to perform measurements and nanoindentation. The attachment is connected to a controller which displays force feedback, and plays the resonance frequencies of your materials on a loudspeaker.
The system consists of a force sensor with integrated pipette holder, control module with preamplifier and a loudspeaker, PC software, a power supply, and an operator's handbook.

Applications - Measurement of elastic parameters of cells, Young's modulus, spring constants of MEMS and resonance frequencies
- Nanoindentation
Specifications - Resolution: sub-µN
- Force range: up to 10 mN
- Output: +/- 10 V

Top Features:
- Easy setup: no cumbersome brackets to fiddle around with; just place the sturdy magnetic micromanipulator onto your microscope stage and start injecting! The NanoControl box and Joypad/Joystick/Cube sit next to the microscope for easy access and ergonomic ease.
- Virtually impervious to vibration
- Very low drift (1 nm/min) (yes, that is 1 nanometer!)
- Sub-nanometer resolution (0.25nm)
- Extensive working range (100cm3)
- Integrated coarse and fine movement in one unit
- High operating velocity (up to 10mm/sec!)
The Kleindiek Nanotechnik MM3A Micromanipulator is a convenient, amazingly precise, and effective solution for patch clamp experiments, in-vitro fertilization (IVF / ICSI), transgenic construction, embryo manipulation, chromosomal dissection, and any types of work that require ultra-precise movement control. It features the ability to move very quickly to the desired location, while maintaining a precision of less than a nanometer! This is over 20 times more precise than any of the Narishige micromanipulators that we offer, and over 40 times more precise than Eppendorf TransferMan® NK 2, InjectMan® NI 2 and PatchMan® systems. If you want incredible precision and stability without sacrificing your working range and operating velocity, this is the micro-manipulator for you!
The MM3A can be maneuvered very easily in all axes using the joystick control. This ergonomic intuitive user interface combined with a wide range of movement speeds makes the Kleindiek Nanotechnik MM3A ideal for microinjection and micro-dissection.
The MM3A is also ideal for patch clamp experiments in the neurobiology lab. It is literally the best micromanipulator for electrophysiology because it is easy to maneuver quickly into place, offers nanometer-level precision when making the fine adjustments to contact the neuron's cell membrane, and yields a stable signal throughout the experiment because it has virtually no drift (unlike fine hydraulic micromanipulators that drift in response to subtle temperature changes).
Click to pop up a comparison chart showing how much more precise, more compact, faster and lighter the MM3A is compared with Eppendorf TransferMan® NK 2, InjectMan® NI 2 and PatchMan® systems and how it compares with our various Narishige alternatives.
Controlling the MM3A: Below is a diagram of how the controls of the MM3A work. The NanoController and the Joypad (top two devices shown in the diagram) are included with the MM3A. Under the standard factory settings, the buttons on the joypad are used to move in coarse mode. The two joysticks can control in either fine or coarse mode depending on your speed selection. Additionally, you can set a home / park position that the micromanipulator can move quickly to and from when performing multiple injections.
For easier high-precision control (such as positioning a patch clamp pipette), we recommend the Cube, a manual control device with three high-resolution vernier dials (bottom device shown on the diagram). It gives you highly responsive, intuitive, linear movement control. It connects directly to the NanoControl control electronics in addition to your choice of joystick.

The course movement range is several centimeters and, once near your target, the standard fine working range of the MM3A is 20 µm. If you want a larger fine mode working range, add the Booster option. This module for the NanoControl control electronics doubles the fine mode working range.

Kleindiek Ultra-precise Lift-Out Shuttle

SY-LOS:
$58,372.97

The Lift-Out Shuttle is a super-fast, dedicated lift-out solution for preparing samples for ex-situ electron microscopy. It features a microgripper, a four-axis substage, and a small CCD camera at surface level that allows for fast approach.
The system is comprised of a four-axis substage mounted on an ultra-compact platform. A microgripper is mounted above the substage to facilitate the lift-out. The stage is manipulated to position the pre-cut sample under the microgripper. After that, the microgripper clamps onto the sample and holds it gently, but firmly enough that the sample can be freed from the bulk material by simply dropping the stage down and out of the way. Once isolated, the sample is brought in contact with SEM-compatible glue on a TEM grid, and cured with an ion beam.
To see a video of this process in action, please follow the link to Kleindiek's website:http://www.nanotechnik.com/lift-out-shuttle.html
The system includes control electronics, a joypad, a microgripper, and an operator's handbook.

The one-axis motorized operation makes careful work easier to achieve.
The MDS-1 One-axis motorized micromanipulator is add-on type for Z-axis direction that is suitable for experiments in rodents. Ideal for precise control that requires careful work in mouse/rat brains, such as implanting GRIN lens, inserting optical fiber and silicon probe for multi-neuron recordings. The drive unit is controlled digitally and remotely, which offers speed control and precise control: those operations are impossible to be performed by a manual model. Two setting modes are available: entering speed directly or entering distance and time. The range of drive speed is set as 0.1 um/s to 500 um/s. The drive unit accommodates to hold a shaft with 3mm to 8mm O.D.
