Product Description
- Includes the Z-axis calibration unit (5100mz-Plus only)
- Vibration frequency from 50 to 80 Hz
- Adjustable amplitude from 0.5mm to 1.5mm
- Fine control of the blade advance (min. 0.1 mm/sec)
- Set start and finish position of blade travel
- Remote controls allowing for sterile use in culture hood
- Ice water bath easily removed for cleaning
- Optional cold light and magnifier for clear observation
- Optional Peltier cooled bath
Use in fully manual or the semi-automated “Slice window” mode which automatically remembers the start and finish position of the slice. This New entry-level Microtome is perfect for techniques such as histology, organotypic slice culture and low resolution imaging with a fixed blade holder and a mechanism Z axis error of ≈ 5-8µm.
