New microtome series on the UK market

Solmedia has brought new precision microtomes to the UK for the first time, as part of a new partnership with SLEE Medical.

The CUT Series range comprises microtomes of the highest calibre, which feature traditional German engineered with the user in mind, and bring a new sense of accuracy and precision to the market.

The CUT Series offers a revolutionary ergonomic design, comfortable usability, and trusted reliability. The range will be exclusive to Solmedia in the UK and will contribute to the development of its histology range.

Already established in thousands of laboratories in Europe and around the world, the CUT Series microtomes are available with either manual, semi-automatic and fully automatic functionality and have been designed to guarantee a positive experience for users. Smooth operation, vibration resistance and specimen retraction all contribute to delivering consistent high-precision and accurate sectioning every time.

The CUT 4062 Manual Rotary Microtome is the evolution of traditional manual microtomes, ideal for routine and research. It is the smallest machine of the Series, ensuring it is a best fit in all laboratories. Its manual functionality permits greater control of sectioning with a smooth-running handle and interchangeable direction coarse feed wheel.

Alternatively, Solmedia will be supplying a fully-automatic rotary microtome, the CUT 6062. A microtome that embraces technology advancements, while maintaining ease of use. With fully motorised advance and sectioning, the CUT 6062 has seven different operation modes that allow users to change the cutting, thickness and movement of the block holder and the speed, all through a centralised control panel.

Completing the CUT Series, the CUT 5062 offers a combination of innovation, ergonomics and traditional manual operations. The Semi-Automatic Microtome offers manual sectioning aided by a motorised specimen feed and motorised trimming (up to 750 μm). The enhanced automated technology maximises section quality and productivity while retaining all essential features of a manual microtome. Meeting the needs of the UK market, the fully-automatic and semi-automatic microtomes have been designed with a rocking mode feature for controlled trimming.
