Stereotaxic Cordless Microdrill Holder
A stereotaxic microdrill holder is a tool used in neurosurgery to precisely position a microdrill at a specific location in the brain.
The tool is attached to a stereotaxic frame, which is a device that allows for the precise localization of specific brain regions. The Microdrill Holder fixes the hand-held cranial drill to the operating arm of the locator controlling the drilling depth through the lifting of the operating arm. With this, the procedure is simple and accurate to avoid damage to the animal’s brain tissue or excessive drilling. The holding range is 14.5mm.

How It Works
The Stereotaxic Cordless Microdrill Holder functions as a mechanical interface between microdrills and stereotaxic instruments. The holder secures microdrills with about 19.5mm diameter through a mounting mechanism that integrates with standard stereotaxic apparatus. Power delivery to the microdrill occurs through electrical connections within the holder assembly.
Depth control operation relies on the precision movement capabilities of the host stereotaxic manipulator. As the manipulator advances or retracts, the holder maintains microdrill alignment while the stereotaxic coordinate system provides positional feedback. This integration allows for controlled drilling depths based on predetermined stereotaxic coordinates.

| Feature | This Product | Typical Alternative | Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diameter Compatibility | About 19.5mm diameter | Fixed diameter options with limited compatibility range | Accommodates standard microdrill sizes commonly used in research procedures. |
| Depth Control Method | Controlled by manipulator | Manual depth adjustment or separate control systems | Integrates depth control with existing stereotaxic coordinate system for enhanced precision. |
| Power Integration | Requires power supply connection | Manual drilling or separate power connections | Simplifies drilling operation through integrated power delivery system. |
| Space Requirements | Space-saving design | Larger mounting assemblies with greater workspace requirements | Minimizes laboratory workspace usage while maintaining full functionality. |
This holder provides integrated microdrill mounting with about 19.5mm diameter compatibility, manipulator-controlled depth operation, and space-saving design for stereotaxic surgical procedures.
Practical Tips
Verify microdrill diameter compatibility before installation to ensure proper fit within the about 19.5mm specification.
Why: Proper diameter matching ensures secure mounting and optimal drilling performance.
Regularly inspect mounting connections and power connections for secure attachment.
Why: Loose connections can affect drilling precision and electrical safety during procedures.
Calibrate depth control accuracy through stereotaxic manipulator before surgical procedures.
Why: Ensures drilling depths match stereotaxic coordinate specifications for procedural accuracy.
Confirm power supply connection stability before beginning drilling operations.
Why: Stable power delivery prevents drilling interruptions that could affect surgical precision.
Check stereotaxic manipulator integration if depth control responsiveness decreases.
Why: Mechanical integration issues can affect precise depth positioning capabilities.
