New Year, New Slicer: Try Our Compresstome Vibratome Demo Program

Share on social

Starting the year with fresh research goals? If improving your tissue sectioning workflow is a priority, our 30-day demo program for the Compresstome VF-510-0Z is the perfect opportunity to explore a vibratome that sections tissue faster, preserves sample integrity, and simplifies your lab work.

We understand that some institutions require a demo before purchasing, and we’re happy to provide this option. Even if a trial isn’t required, researchers who take advantage of our demo program get hands-on experience with the patented specimen tube technology that makes the Compresstome stand out from other vibratomes. Labs familiar with competitor vibratomes can use the demo period to compare sectioning speed, slice health, and workflow efficiency—and see firsthand how the VF-510-0Z can section up to five times faster.

Whether you work with electrophysiology, immunohistochemistry, organotypic slice cultures, or precision-cut tissue slices, testing out the Compresstome VF-510-0Z in your own lab can show you how it enhances slice quality and speeds up experiments.

How the Demo Program Works

We’ve designed the demo program to be simple, with just two quick steps to get started:

1. Complete the Required Forms

Once you request a demo, we’ll send an email with two documents for you to review and sign:

  • Demo Contract – Covers the 30-day trial period, including the start and end dates, and includes the machine’s serial number.
  • Credit Card Authorization Form

If you prefer, we also accept a purchase order (PO) instead of a credit card. The PO remains on hold during the demo and is only processed if you decide to keep the Compresstome. If you choose not to purchase, we void the PO with no charge.

2. Training and Support Throughout Your Demo

We want you to get the most out of your trial, so we provide training and ongoing support:

  • Pre-Demo Training – Before your Compresstome arrives, we schedule a short Google Meet session to walk you through the setup process and get you started immediately.
  • Q&A Session – About two weeks into the demo, we schedule a required follow-up session to check in and answer any questions.

In addition to these training sessions, we also send weekly check-in emails to ensure you have everything you need.

Why Researchers Are Switching to the Compresstome

Many labs still use outdated vibratomes or struggle with tissue sectioning inefficiencies. The Compresstome VF-510-0Z offers several advantages that improve research outcomes:

  • Faster Sectioning Speed – The Compresstome sections five times faster than competitor vibratomes, saving valuable lab time.
  • Healthier, More Consistent Slices – Ideal for applications like electrophysiology, immunohistochemistry, organotypic slice culture, and precision-cut tissue slices.
  • Compact and Lightweight – Designed to fit easily on lab benches without taking up too much space.
  • Patented Specimen Tube Technology – Makes embedding and sectioning more efficient and reproducible.

The difference is clear when researchers see the Compresstome in action and experience better slice quality and faster workflow.

Get Started with a Demo

If you’re curious about how the Compresstome VF-510-0Z can improve your experiments, there’s no better way to find out than by trying it for yourself. To request a 30-day demo, email us at [email protected] and include:

  • Your name
  • Your role & institution
  • Confirmation that you’ll be signing the demo agreement

We’ll take care of the rest. Start the new year with better, faster tissue sectioning and experience the Compresstome difference in your own lab.
