DESCRIPTION
Microtome
The RM2245 is a semi-motorized rotary microtome, designed for routine and research applications in histopathology and industrial quality assurance laboratories. Manual sectioning is enhanced by a high-precision motorized specimen feed, which results in efficient operation with maximum section quality and reproducibility. Choose between conventional, full-handwheel rotation, manual sectioning or "rocking mode", where the handwheel is turned back and forth over a short distance. The instrument has been specially designed for the experienced user who prefers manual over motorized sectioning.

FEATURES
- High precision specimen feeding: High precision specimen feeding via stepper motor provides consistent section quality for sensitive staining methods.
- Large 70mm vertical stroke: The large 70mm vertical stroke allows sectioning of super mega cassettes and also supports safer specimen changing due to the greater distance to the knife edge.
- Adjustable handwheel balance system: Patented adjustable handwheel balance system protects the specimen because the object head does not drop into the knife when sectioning is stopped.
- Precision orientation system: The optional 8° X/Y precision orientation system with calibrated controls helps to quickly orient already cut specimens (re-cuts). The system then rapidly returns the exact zero position, which is marked by two red indicators.
