Patch-Clamp Manipulation System

The Burleigh® PCS-4100 micromanipulator was designed by and for electrophysiologists, primarily for patching cultured cells. The low-cost PCS-4100 is the only micromanipulator in the world to include memory positions on the Z axis as well as both rotary stages. Pipette exchange has never been faster or easier.

Patch-Clamp Manipulation System

The Burleigh® PCS-4100 micromanipulator was designed by and for electrophysiologists, primarily for patching cultured cells. The low-cost PCS-4100 is the only micromanipulator in the world to include memory positions on the Z axis as well as both rotary stages. Pipette exchange has never been faster or easier.

The PCS-4100 is the world's first micromanipulator to have user-defined memory positions in the Z axis and two rotary axes. This unique combination, available only from EXFO, allows unprecedented ease of use and efficiency.

Electrophysiologists understand the absolute importance of rapid pipette exchange. The PCS-4100 offers rotary stages, locking pins, motorized home and work positions - essential elements for easy pipette exchange. You can change a pipette and position with a new one in less than 60 seconds.
