The M3301 is a popular Manual Micromanipulator, because it is accurate, lightweight and well-engineered. This solid manipulator outsells all others worldwide for high precision experiments where magnification is in the range of up to 250x.
Weighing just 550g, it has a slim, space-saving design. Units can stand tightly grouped, since all control knobs project to the rear. Because the control knobs are clustered within an 8 cm area in a single vertical plane, resolution is quick. The hand works blindly while the eye monitors the microscopic image. Vernier scales allow readings to 0.1 mm. X-axis fine control allows readings to 10μm.
The rack-and-pinion drive, V-shaped guideways and cross roller bearings ensure smooth movement that is sure and repeatable, without drift, side play, backlash or sticking. Contact parts are milled of hardened steel for high performance and long life.
