Universal Motorised Stage

Rapid, precise adjustment makes the Scientifica Universal Motorised Stage (UMS) a valuable tool for electrophysiology research. The Scientifica UMS provides fast, accurate and intuitive remote control that removes the effort and potential for error from the adjustment process.

The 400 x 200mm UMS provides 50mm of travel in both the X and Y axes, allowing you to roam the largest of samples. An optional Z axis focus control is available. Speed can be controlled down to 1 micron per second, making this motorised stage more accurate than any manually adjusted system. An ergonomically designed joystick or control cube, working together with the ultra-low noise motor, makes the UMS the perfect complement to any upright or inverted microscope from Olympus, Nikon, Zeiss or Leica.

Many samples have several areas of interest. The Scientifica UMS can store and recall up to 50 positions in chronological order so you can roam and then return to a previous site. The versatility makes the UMS suitable for many imaging and physiological experiments.

This product is also available with manual adjustment, see the XY Stage (Manual) product page for more information.

• Up to 50 mm of travel in X & Y ensures even the largest brain slices can be used.
• Optional motorised Z axis focus control
• Large stage design, 200 x 400 mm, ensures stable, repeatable movements when using even the heaviest of microscopes.
• Due to its large load carrying capacity the Microscope stage can be used with almost any Zeiss, Leica, Nikon or Olympus inverted or upright microscopeIs commonly used with the Scientifica SlicePlatform, Inverted Slice Platform and the Post and Platforms.
• Uses long crossed roller bearings for super smooth motion
• Can be configured left or right handed to suit the individual user 
• Includes a Water protection sheet as protection from unwanted spills

Scientifica have developed a range of control hardware, fully compatible with all motorised products, carefully designed to be simple to setup and intuitive to use straight out of the box. Using the Windows-based Linlab software supplied, the user can then further personalise the control devices if required.

These options are detailed in the control product area.

The control options available are:

• The Control Cube

• The Joystick

• The PatchPad range

• Linlab control
