A semi-automatic microtome is used to cut extremely thin sections (slices) of tissue from a paraffin-embedded block for microscopic examination.
Features:
1. Sectioning Mode: Semi-automatic rotary sectioning method.
2. Control Interface: High-definition color touchscreen with bilingual (Chinese/English) menus for controlling section thickness, trimming thickness, section counting, fast-forward/rewind, and mode switching functions.
3. Feeding System: High-precision feed system ensuring 0.1 μm sectioning accuracy.
4. Specimen Retraction: Unique rapid specimen retraction with memory function.
5. Specimen Orientation: Specimen clamp allows 360° free rotation and secure locking.
6. Blade Holder Features: Precision blade displacement function. Adjustable blade angle from 0° to 15°. Compatible with both standard and wide disposable blades (interchangeable). Red safety blade guard with blade removal function covers the entire blade edge for maximum user protection during sectioning and when changing paraffin blocks.
7. Optional Specimen Clamps: Standard paraffin block clamp or standard cassette clamp.
8. Sectioning Parameters: Section thickness range 0-100 μm. Maximum section size 60×48 mm. Specimen orientation adjustments with zero indicator: horizontal tilt 0°-10° adjustable, vertical tilt 0°-10° adjustable, 360° rotation.
9. Specimen Travel Range: Maximum vertical stroke 70 mm. Maximum horizontal stroke 28 mm ± 1 mm.
