Temperature And Environmental Control From < -195°C To 600°C With Motorised XY Sample Manipulators

Product Description

The MDS600 is a motorised version of the THMS600, one of the most widely used heating and freezing microscope stages.

The sample is motorised in X and Y directions by precision mico stepped motors that enable micron repeatable position resolution and recall so that a sample can be mapped in order to quickly relocate positions of interest and carry out temperature controlled experiments significant to that point.

Unrivalled accuracy and control of temperature from < -195°C to 600°C.

The MDS600 is available with either NEXUS software for computer control and recording, or a LinkPad touch screen for stand-alone control.
