erma type rotary microtome

Digital Rotary Microtome is a highly versatile sectioning device suitable for Medical Institutions & Pathological Labs. This microtome has special application for cutting sections of histopathological specimens. The entire mechanism stands on a heavy cast iron base ensuring stability and rigidity. The metal hinged cover housing protects the internal mechanism against dust and paraffin waste. The microtome is driven by a handle which can also be locked. Cutting sections are obtained in different thickness by mechanically operated crank through a lnurled in front of the instrument. The knurled knob is graduated in microns for feed setting and ready reference detent click action ensures positive adjustments in one micron increment. The knife holder unit is equipped with a rotating knife clamp to adjust desired angles for best sectioning. It has forward and backward movement to ensure contact of specimen with the knife and lateral movement to get maximum use of knife edge. All parts are fabricated from selected alloys and the knife is manufactured from fine grain steel tested to maintain optimum sharpness strength.
