The MT-70 series of stands are sturdy, stable and extremely versatile for mounting components for a variety of research applications. They were designed for placing the heavy Sutter Huxley style micromanipulators adjacent to any microscope. They have been found to be so useful and versatile that they are also used for mounting other items such as optical components.
The stands are based on a rigid extruded aluminium tower which is available in 3" increments up to 12". The tower is mounted on a sturdy 3/4" thick aluminium baseplate and then fitted with a 5/16" thick aluminium mounting platform. These systems are configurable as fixed height stands or, in the MT-71 series, you can add an adjustable height cantilevered side platform for added versatility. The tower can be center or edge mounted to the baseplate for accommodating various spatial layouts. Rows of 1" centered, clearance holes are provided in the baseplate for attachment to the tables. The mounting platforms have 1/4-20 tapped mounting holes on 1" centres.
The stands are available in sets or you can order individual components separately to meet your specific requirements. Custom heights can be made to order for an additional fee. To securely fasten the MP-85 or MP-285 robotic manipulator to the mounting plates, please order the manipulator adaptor plate at the time of purchase. Larger baseplates or mounting plates are available upon special order.
