Easily Read Scales
All scales are oriented to be read easily from the open end of the ‘U’. This is the position from which most scientists prefer to work. The numerals on the scales are larger, and therefore more easily read. The scale lines are laser engraved, to allow finest possible permanent marking of scales on all 3 axes. Precise alignment with facing vernier scales gives accurate resolution to 0.1mm.
Smooth Movements
The Lab Standard’s™ exclusive, triple lead screws allow the fastest positioning possible, consistent with lining up the scales easily at a given coordinate.
Versatility of Positioning
The manipulator arm controls medio-lateral and vertical positioning via lead screws, andantero-posterior movement via dovetail slide movement, with 80 mm of travel possible in each direction. A Universal Joint allows the investigator to change the angle of the probe up to 90° in either the antero-posterior or medio-lateral planes. The improved locking mechanism on the Lab Standard™ will hold any angle position without slippage. And of course, it also provides an absolute lock at 90 vertical.
In addition, a swing joint allows the investigator to conveniently swing the manipulator arm and probe out of the way for performing a procedure then reliably return the probe to the same point.
Convenient for Electrophysiology
Integral brass bushings in the manipulator arm allow grounding directly to the closest metal on the manipulator arm — even the probe holder.
Selection of Accessories
Species adaptors are available to fit rat, cat/monkey, dog/monkey, mouse, guinea pig and small bird. Probe holders and species adaptors for ‘U’ frame stereotaxic instruments from other manufacturers are generally compatible with the Lab Standard™ frame.

Versatile Positioning
The manipulator arm controls medial-lateral and ventral-dorsal using exclusive triple lead screws for faster positioning, and anterior-posterior movement via dovetail slide movement, with 80 mm of travel possible in each direction. A universal joint allows the researcher to change the angle of the probe upto 90° in either the anterior-posterior or mediallateral planes. The improved locking mechanism on the Lab Standard™ will hold any angle position without slipping. And of course, it also provides an absolute lock at 90° vertical.
Specila material finish
We use special material finish for the U-frame. If you put some chemical solution on it with carefully, just remove it, and the colour will not be change. Normal finish is spraying in the market, when you put some chemical solution on it, the colour will changed as time goes on. looks more old and old.
