Rotary Microtome RF-800 features

Precisionary Rotary Microtome RF-800

Our rotary microtome RF-800 is our best selling model. The RF-800 is a semi-automated model that is ideal for repetitive tissue slicing. “Semi-automated” means that single sections are cut and controlled using a main handwheel, but the forward and reverse movement of the specimen holder (i.e., specimen head clamp) is controlled by a LCD touchscreen (and thus is automated).

This microtome is designed to achieve higher quality tissue sections, especially paraffin wax embedded samples. The thin tissue slices can then be processed for H&E, immunohistochemistry, and other histopathological needs.

Key RF-800 Features:

  • LCD touchscreen panel shows all cutting metrics
  • Control panel provides easy and friendly controls
  • Specimen clamp is compatible with multiple cassette sizes
  • Cutting stage has both blade guard and blade ejector for increased safety. Can also be used with high- or low-profile blades
  • Large volume waste tray is removable for easy cleaning
  • Top of microtome can be used for storage of consumables during cutting, saving space
  • Smooth turning handwheel can be locked anywhere in the 360-degree turn, allowing for improved ergonomics
