Model 642 Hydraulic X-Y Micropositioner |
Model 642 Advanced FeaturesThe hydraulic drive is designed for a full 10 mm of total travel distance. The distance traveled is dis-played on .010 mm resolution dial indicators for gross movement. Fine resolution of movement is engraved on the axis control knobs with .001 mm resolution. The 2-axis slave positioner is connected to the hydraulic unit by 9 ft. heavy walled flexible teflon tubing. The slide stages of the slave unit are precision ball slides for absolute smooth, rigid and accurate electrode manipulation. Master and slave cylinders have 1:1 ratio. Cylinders have rolling diaphragms to provide absolute separation of air and water. Distilled water is used because of its compression factor and low coefficient of expansion at room temperature. X/Y slave cylinders are easily removable for performing refill procedure on hydraulic assembly.
Model 642 is a portable manual operated hydraulic 2-axis micropositioner designed for noise free remote manipulation of recording electrodes while the stereotaxic experiment is isolated inside of an EMI shield. The X/Y slave positioner mounts directly onto the lateral slide of all Kopf manipulators. Design includes our standard mounting configuration for mounting any Kopf manual or electronically controlled hydraulic micropositioner for full 3-axis remote electrode manipulation. Additionally, any standard Kopf stereotaxic accessory can be mounted directly onto the slave unit for 2-axis ultra-fine manipulation.
