pfm Rotary 3000 Compact

The pfm Rotary 3000 Compact is a compact, newly designed manual rotary microtome suitable for all applications in routine use, research and industry.

Benefits

Excellent section quality  The stable object and knife/blade holder system in combination with the horizontal and vertical cross-roller bearing system, guarantee maximum stability. This unique technology ensures reliable and consistently high sectioning quality. In combination with its ergonomic design, the pfm Rotary 3000 Compact is ideal for situations with high sample throughput.

Convenient operation  The new retraction system, which can be switched on and off, the smooth-running handwheel and the tangible zero-point object orientation enable comfortable and efficient operation.

Safe operation  During mounting of the object and knife the handwheel lock can be activated in order to prevent injury. A colour-marked finger guard offers additional safety in the area of the knife/blade edge.

Easy cleaning  The surface of the housing is fully anodized and easy to clean. The waste produced during sectioning is caught by the section waste tray and can be disposed of easily.

pfm Rotary 3004 M

The pfm Rotary 3004 M is a modern, newly-designed manual rotary microtome for all applications in routine use, research and industry.

Benefits

Excellent section quality  The robust object and knife/blade holders operating in combination with the horizontal and vertical cross-roller bearing system guarantee maximum stability. This unique technology and the quality of the materials used is reflected in the reliable and consistently high sectioning quality. Together with its ergonomic design these features make pfm medical rotary microtomes ideal for situations with a high sample throughput. 

Safe operation  When the object and knife are being mounted a handwheel lock is activated in order to prevent injury. A colour-marked finger guard offers additional safety in the area of the knife/blade edge.

Simple operation  The control panels and display elements are clearly arranged according to their functions. This makes the microtome easy and convenient to operate.

Precise orientation of samples  The specimens can be aligned quickly and easily to the desired position as well as advanced to the knife/blade edge by using the object orientation system along the X/Y axes and the colour coded tangible zero point setting.

Suitable for large samples  pfm medical´s rotary microtomes are also suitable for use with large universal cassette clamps and can be converted without difficulty. This means that samples of different sizes can be processed depending on customers´ requirements.

Easy cleaning and care  The surface of the housing is fully anodised and easy to clean. The waste produced during sectioning is caught by the integrated section waste tray and is then easy to discard. The section waste tray is also anodised and easy to clean.
