HistoDream M
Ergonomic and safe semiautomated rotary microtome 
- User friendly, safe and precise semiautomated unit
- Provides high quality sections for all type of specimens
- A smooth and ergonomic hand wheel to minimise users' fatigue
Features
Features
- Safety: blade holder with finger guard, magnetic tool for
insertion/extraction of blades and a memory distance for the blade - Ergonomics: ergonomic design, smooth and ergonomic hand wheel to minimise fatigue, arm rest, built in comfortable touch screen position for all operators
- Ease of use: user friendly icon driven touch screen interface, large flat unit to keep tools and slides, easy selection of cutting parameters
- Productivity: a spacious antistatic waste tray, a speciment clamp that prevents the build up of dirt, a memory key to retrieve previous settings and an auto-blade reaction to extend blade life
- Reliability: roburt stainless steel structure which is built to last, an anti-vibration effect and a solid base
- Flexibility: motorised specimen feed (continuous and step), three types of clamps (quick release, standard and supermega), blader holder for both low and high grade blades (vertical movement) and specimen orientating head for moement in X/Y and Z direction.
