Agar Scientific has announced that it will supply the Kleindiek micromanipulator to the UK and Irish markets.
The Kleindiek MM3A-EM micromanipulator can be fitted with a variety of plug-in tools to provide versatility for many applications.
One of the key applications is nanomanipulation, and when fitted with the MGS2 microgripper tool it can be used in FIB applications for in- and ex-situ liftout.
It can also be used to provide other solutions to high-resolution transport and micro-assembly challenges.
This system can be used for electrical probing, force measurements, nanoindentation and micro-injection of fluids and gases by the addition of other plug-in tools.
Sample throughput has been increased by providing result-oriented operation facilitated by control interfaces and software.
The MM3A-EM offers stability and low drift, which is a result of its compact construction.
This micromanipulator platform has no backlash and is virtually insusceptible to vibrations.
Other qualities include fast pre-positioning of tools by hand, sub-nanometre resolution (0.25nm) and an extensive working range.
