Rotating Cage Stage (RCS-91 & RCS-92)

$3,980.00 – $4,980.00

Amuza Rotating Cage Stage RCS-91 and RCS-92

RCS-91 and RCS-92 work to untwist the lines connected to an animal in a cage. A sensor integrated into the balance arm detects rotation of the animal and turns the stage in the opposite direction. The adjustable balance arm supplies tension, keeping the tether and other lines away from the animal.

The rotating stage obviates the need for slip ring commutators, liquid swivels or fiber optic rotary joints. Electrophysiology, microdialysis, and optogenetics experiments often require multiple cables or tubes to remain connected to an animal without restricting its ability to turn around multiple times.

The RCS-92 has an extra function to record the rotation of the stage in both directions during experiments. Counters can record ¼ or full rotations in either direction to log the activity of the animal. This function cannot be added to your RCS-91.
