SLIDING MICROTOME

HM 430 The exceptionally smooth movement of the knife carrier provides effortless sectioning quickly. The caged sliding movement assures optimal stability and consistent high quality sections even with hard and large specimens up to 155x 90 mm, at high or low cutting speeds.


HM 450 A unique sliding microtome with automatic fine/trim- feed system, specimen retraction during return travel. Maintenance-free precision cross roller bearings. For sectioning paraffin, frozen specimens and specialty applications in biological, botany, and materials science. Specimen sizes up to 155 x 90 mm can be accommodated. Performance, ergonomy and design of this sliding microtome with stepping motor far exceed today’s standards.

The extraordinary smooth knife carrier movement guarantees fast, comfortable and non-tiring operation.
Intelligent and modern electronic control systems coupled with high-precision mechanics result in optimal section quality and reproducibility of even difficult-to-cut embedded specimens.Adjustable handle.
