TWEEZER TECHNICAL INFORMATION

The most critical parts of any tweezer or forcep are the points. Finishing the points
is an art form perfected over years of practice. Whether working on microchips
or working on human cells, microscopy is playing a signifi cant part in the work
being done today. This work requires extremely precise tweezer points that meet
perfectly. Excelta tweezers cover the spectrum!

Micro Fine When working under high magnifi cation with tweezers/forceps it is
Tips critical that the points are exactly the same size and meet precisely.
Many of these tweezers have relieved tips allowing for excellent visibility
under a scope.

Fine Tips These very fi ne tipped tweezers can be used for low magnifi cation
applications, or for work being done without the use of a scope.

Medium Tips General purpose tweezers with semi-fi ne tips are used for any work
done without a microscope.

Blunt Strong Blunt strong tipped tweezers are the work horse of tweezers. Most of
Tips these tweezers can be dropped without much damage to the tips.
They last much longer than fi ne or micro fi ne tipped tweezers, but lack
the accuracy of fi ner tipped tweezers.

Flat Tips Flat tip tweezers are used for everything from placing and removing
labels, to picking up fl at items like lenses. These tips are generally
rounded.

Application We create application specifi c tweezers for ANY application. Over the
Specifi c Tips years certain applications have repeated, prompting us to categorize
these application specifi c tweezers. Those categories include cutting
tweezers, paddle tip tweezers, wafer tweezers, miniature tweezers,
cross-action tweezers, ergonomic tweezers and component handling
tweezers.
