The OpenFlexure Project

The OpenFlexure project aims to make high precision mechanical positioning available to anyone with a 3D printer - for use in microscopes, micromanipulators, and more.

Currently the OpenFlexure project has two main focuses:

The OpenFlexure Microscope

An open-source, 3D-printed microscope, including a precise mechanical stage to move the sample and focus the optics.

The OpenFlexure Block Stage

A 3D printable stage including sub-micron mechanical positioning, with a focus on good mechanical stability.
