Microtome

Overview

Dakewe MT1 semi-automated rotary microtome offers quality sections and effortless experience with engineered mechanism and ergonomic design, adapting to the need of every microtomists in the laboratory.

 

Features

Precision oriented

• ±8° X/Y orientation with clear graduation enables fast alignment of the specimens.

• Patented 0 position indicator with pleasant motion feedback.

• Coarse feed wheel with pleasant motion feedback.

• Position memory function brings specimen head to desired position in one touch.

• Motorized system offers steady and even-speed movement.

 

Ergonomics infused

• Smooth-running and light hand wheel thanks to expertly designed force balance system.

• Thumb design on the hand wheel for the thumb to rest on amid heavy workload.

• Large volume, removable waste tray with slope interior for effortless cleaning.

• Rounded corner in every corner protects laboratory technicians.

• Bottom glider makes cleaning easier.

 

Adapt to users
