Meet Our Rotary Microtome RF-600!

Hello! For this week and the next few weeks, we’d like to introduce you to each of our new rotary microtome models. Often, it’s super confusing when exploring a product line and deciding what microtome to buy. So we want to make this easy by introducing you to each of our microtome models one-by-one, with clear details about the features that distinguish each model. We’ll begin with our Precisionary Rotary Microtome RF-600!

Precisionary Rotary Microtome RF-600

Our rotary microtome RF-600 is a manual model that is ideal for routine histology tissue sectioning. “Manual” means that single sections are cut and controlled using a main handwheel, and that the forward and reverse movement of the specimen holder (i.e., specimen head clamp) is controlled by a small coarse handwheel.

This microtome provides high precision cutting and stability, which gives you reproducible, high-quality sections from paraffin wax embedded samples, or other hard specimens including polymers.

Key RF-600 Features:

• We include TWO knife block cutting stages for free!
• We include TWO specimen clamps for free!
• High precision specimen feed control
• Compatible with low-profile and high-profile blades
• Specimen clamp is compatible with multiple cassette sixes
• Handwheel can be stable in any 360-degree position
• Cutting stage has blade guard and blade ejector for increased safety
• Spacious waste tray in front is removable for easy clean-up
