Automatic sample preparation system EM KMR3

laboratoryfor researchfor electron microscopy

The balanced break method of the Leica EM KMR3 ensures perfect glass knives in three thicknesses 6.4 mm, 8 mm and 10 mm. Since the introduction of the world’s first glass knife maker in 1962, Leica Microsystems has continuously refined the technique of highprecision glass knife making. Central to the design of the Leica EM KMR3 knife maker is the precise balancing of the instrument’s mechanical components to produce a 100% balanced break of the glass. This technical precision produces an outstanding, high-quality knife edge. In addition, the instrument is ergonomically designed to provide comfort and ease of use. KEY FEATURES Highly reproducible and outstanding knife quality With the breaking head exact symetrical force is put onto each side of the glass strip during breaking cycle Convenient handling The unique drawer unit ensures save and convenient glass knife removal without any additional tool. Easy operation Automatic reset of the breaking and scoring mechanism minimizes error possibilities
