Description
The MicroTester is a micro-scale mechanical test system that does what others can’t. Smaller specimens, better force resolution, easier test setups, and great visuals. Applications include small tissue samples, hydrogel microspheres, cell spheroids, and engineered microtissues. It is available in 2 versions to meet your specific needs:
MT G2
- Compression, tension, bending and indentation; option for shear testing
- Highest level precision using Piezo-electric actuators with 0.1µm resolution
- Optional second axis imaging
- Force resolution down to 10nN
- High resolution CCD imaging
- Integrated temperature-controlled media bath
- Fully featured user interface software for simple, cyclic, relaxation, and multi-modal testing with real-time feedback
Options of instrument usage
- This instrument can be used as an stand-alone device and is available for independent use. Please note possible requirements for access.
- This instrument can be used with the support of a supervising assistant.
