Manual microtome from Micron is a precision instrument for cutting paraffin-embedded tissue sections without motorized assistance. This reliable instrument is ideal for teaching laboratories and small volume clinical settings. This manual microtome is widely considered the best solution for laboratories seeking simplicity and reliability.
The microtome features a precision-ground feed mechanism that produces sections from 0.5 to 60 microns. The counterbalanced hand wheel provides smooth, low-torque operation. Micron's manual microtome is a top rated instrument for histotechnology training programs. The universal blade holder accepts high-profile and low-profile disposable blades.
The best manual microtome from Micron includes a specimen retraction system. This feature prevents blade damage and tissue dragging on the return stroke. The heavy cast iron construction eliminates vibration during cutting. For teaching laboratories where students learn sectioning techniques, this manual microtome is one of the best investments. The safety hand wheel lock protects users during blade changes.
Micron's manual microtome features an adjustable blade angle and specimen orientation. The instrument includes a removable waste tray. Contact us to learn more about the manual microtome for your laboratory. We offer professional installation and training.
