Minux® S700 Rotary Microtome

Built upon market-leading microtome design, S700 Paraffin Rotary Microtome enables you to cut sections precisely, safely and superior easy-operationally. It displays extraordinary ergonomic characteristics for comfortable operation. It is a semi-automatic model, more in line with your slicing habits.

If working with delicate specimens (example being brain samples) the system will provide reproducible, thin, serial sections of maximum quality time and again. Unique side specimen knob and visual pointer design make specimen advance and retraction more precision. Handwheel double lock system and knife ejector and guard enhance safety.

Technical Specifications

Features&Benefits

Accurate

• Precise sampling:Cross roller bearings and Spindle imported from Germany, combined with a five-phase high-resolution Stepper motor and a Link block made of aviation aluminum, form a high-precision sampling system to ensure slice quality.
• Accurate positioning: Patented technology pointer identification, the sample angle can be adjusted visually, and the positioning is more accurate; the knife holder has a small lateral displacement and high accuracy. The base has a scale, which is convenient for the knife holder to locate and improve the quality of slices.

Safety

•  Operator safety: The handwheel dual locking system comes with a lock prompt sound, and is equipped with a knife ejector and a knife guard, so that the user can safely replace the sample and blade.

Intelligent

• Information tracking: 5-inch touch screen, history recording system, easy to trace back information and quickly solve problems

 Convenient

• Convenient operation: German military-grade side injection knob conforms to ergonomic design, and the operation is more comfortable and coordinated.
• Convenient maintenance: special material waste tank, non-wax, easy to clean
