Agar Scientific
is pleased to announce that they are now in a position to supply the Kleindiek
micromanipulator to the UK and Irish markets.
In recent years, the Kleindiek MM3A-EM micromanipulator has created an unparalleled
new dimension of quality in the field of Electron Microscopy. It can be quickly
and easily fitted with a variety of plug-in tools providing greater versatility
for many applications.
One of the key applications is nanomanipulation and when fitted with the MGS2
Microgripper tool it can be effortlessly 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 versatile system can also be used for electrical probing, force measurements,
nanoindentation and micro-injection of fluids and gases by the uncomplicated
addition of other plug-in tools.
Sample throughput has been increased by providing result-oriented operation
facilitated by intuitive control interfaces and software. Exchange of probe
tips is quick and easy making it an extremely user-friendly system.
The MM3A-EM offers excellent stability and low drift (1 nm/min) which is a
result of its compact construction. Furthermore 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 (100cm?). These factors coupled to a high operating
velocity (up to 100mm/sec) makes the Kleindiek micromanipulator worthy of consideration
by any EM user requiring the best in manipulation accessories.
