Sliding Microtome

The large-slide microtomes are high-performance microtomes for biomedical and industrial applications. The microtomes are fully automated and feature control panels with electronic handwheels as well as a touchscreen for quick and easy adjustments. The solid construction ensures high stability, yet the equipment can be moved effortlessly via the heavy-duty casters provided. Due to the precise blade alignment and specimen orientation, as well as a freely selectable blade and declination angle, the microtomes deliver highly precise sections for all conceivable applications. The entire design is user-friendly and extremely low-maintenance.
