Sutter Instrument MP-265/MPC-365 Narrow Format Manipulator System
Beschreibung

 

Sutter’s  MP-265/M "narrow format" mechanical is designed especially for patch-slice manipulator systems that require more than 2 or 3 pipettes.  Coupled with the multi-manipulator controller, MPC-200, users have the ability to easily build up multi-manipulator MPC-365 systems for positioning mul­tiple recording and stimulating pipettes.

The MP265/M mechanical builds on Sutter's existing manipulator line in several ways.  First, narrow format means more manipulators can be grouped around a recording chamber.  A long throw (25 mm) radial X-axis provides an easier approach to and from the optical center.  Finally, travel in the Y-axis is shortened (12.5 mm) to economize on width, which is made possible because radially oriented manipulators do not require long travel in this axis.

The MP-265/M manipulator is designed specifically for systems requiring 4 or more manipulators.  To this end, we have put together systems with special pricing for 4, 5 and 6 manipulators, and 2 or 3 dual manipulator controllers. We are also unveiling a new linear slide for mounting the MP-265/M mechanical as well as for our other manipulators. With the linear slide gantry (MT-75/LS), the manipulator can be quickly and smoothly moved out to a location where there is easy access to the pipette for replacement.

A single controller capable of running 2 manipulators! Sutter Instrument has taken the simplicity of the MP-225 controller and expanded it to run two manipulators from a single controller/ROE. The MPC-200 works with one or two of Sutter's mechanicals, the MP-285 (MPC-385) or the MP-225 (MPC-325). The controller is self-detecting so there is no need for manual configuration of the components.

If two manipulators aren’t enough, a second controller can be daisy chained to allow the single ROE-200 to move up to four manipulators.  Thus the system can be easily expanded to control highly sophisticated experiments.

Components

MPC-200   Controller box alone. Purchase this if you intend to daisy chain two controllers to one ROE-200. In this configuration, up to four manipulators can be controlled by a single ROE-200. Note: this is not a stand-alone device. In order to function, the MPC-200 must be connected to a second MP-200 with ROE-200 attached or be connected to its own ROE-200. Includes daisy chain cables, power cord and manual.

ROE-200   This is the ROE alone. Provides user input to one or more MPC-200 controllers.This component is intended for users who have an existing four-manipulator MPC-200 system with a single ROE-200 and wish to split it into two independent two-manipulator systems. Includes cable to connect ROE to controller.

MP-265/M   The MP-265 manipulator mechanical alone. Includes mounting adapter plate, rod holder, 4in. dovetail extension, hinged headstage mount and cable to connect manipulator to controller.
