Manual Microtome
Full color TFT 7” display with PCAD (projected capacitive) touchscreen. Size and tilt of the display allow an easy and effortless selection of the parameters and increase user safety.
All required parameters and functions are available on the main screen: section mode, section and trimming thickness, section counter, section sum, remaining travel, retraction and coarse feed, memory function.
Memory function
| MEM key for higher productivity, to retrieve previous cuttings settings when working with uniform paraffin blocks. By simply pressing a key, the specimen moves into the stored MEM position. |
Specimen orienting headThanks to a blocking mechanism the easy to operate change system allows to work with different specimen clamps. Indication of 0-position in x and y direction by palpable “click” for the precise alignment of the specimen. Motorized specimen feed
|
Quick release specimen clamp
Cutting-edge design of the specimen clamp that prevents building up of dirt and facilitates operations with the microtome.
The retraction function selectable between 5 -250μ can be deactivated, although it is advisable as it prolongs the life of the blade. ( Default value 40 μ)
Spacious waste tray
| Special antistatic coating prevents paraffin adhesion and minimizes the cleaning time. Ergonomic design with surface for arm rest. Wide area on the top of the microtome for the storage of tools. |
