Our Large-Sledge-Microtomes are high-performance sliding microtomes for biomedical and industrial applications. The microtomes are fully automated and feature a control panel with electronic hand wheels and a touch screen allowing settings to be applied quickly and simply. High stability is guaranteed through their solid structure, while heavy-duty rollers enable easy handling. By means of precise knife feed and sample alignment as well as a freely adjustable clearance and declination angle, they enable high-precision sectioning for any application. The construction is designed to be user-friendly and low-maintenance.
