Hi! we have a new design for the micromanipulator! check this out:
-Axis Base: This is the main component of each axis because it holds all other components.
You can find the STL file here: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/axis_base.stl
-Axis-Motor: It fixates the motor to the axis base
You can find the STL file here: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/axis_motor.stl
-Axis TAP: The lid that closes the axis structure
You can find the STL file here: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/axis_tap.stl
-Axis Bolt A: One of the two pieces that when coupled turn rotational movement into linear one.
You can find the STL file here: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/axis_bolt_a.stl
-Axis Bolt B: This piece complements axis bolt A to turn rotational movement into linear one
You can find the STL file here:: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/axis_bolt_b.stl
-Prof X: THis piece will let you fit the axis to the aluminium profile
You can find the STL file here: https://github.com/FOSH-following-demand/Micro_Manipulator/blob/master/hardware/mechanics/prof_x.stl
-Z needle A-B: These symmetric pieces will let you fit the needle to the Z axis
You can find the STL files here:
- Building the Axis
- Joining the 3 axis with the aluminum profile
- Placing the needle on the z axis

Step by step [coming soon...]
We are "Peru team". We want to build an open source micromanipulator.
This equipment lets the user manipulate things in a microscopic level. Common uses include cell manipulation and is also quite common in reproductive biology for Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)-
