Leica RM 2155 Automated Rotary Microtome for Precision Histology Sectioning
Product Description
The Leica RM 2155 Automated Rotary Microtome is engineered for high-precision sectioning of paraffin and resin-embedded tissue specimens, essential for advanced histology, pathology, and materials science research. Combining motorized speed control with manual fine adjustment, it supports rapid trimming and delicate specimen preparation required in molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing workflows.
Key technical specifications include:
- Section thickness range from 0.5 to 60 µm enabling versatile microtomy for thin tissue slices critical in synthetic biology and biomedical engineering.
- Maximum specimen dimensions up to 50 x 40 x 60 mm, accommodating diverse sample types used in cellular imaging and biotechnology applications.
- Motorized sectioning speeds between 0.5 to 420 mm per second, with coarse feed rates of 900 µm/s for efficient high-throughput workflows.
- Manual retraction settings at 5, 10, 15, 20 µm to prevent sample compression, crucial for molecular cloning and gene editing studies.
- Built-in safety and ergonomic features including a locking handwheel, emergency stop, protective knife guard, and an LED control panel with optional footswitch or joystick for hands-free operation during repetitive sectioning tasks.
This rotary microtome employs smooth zero-backlash cross-roller guides for consistent, reproducible cuts — a prerequisite for critical histopathological analysis and biomanufacturing pipelines. Its 90° specimen rotation and 8° horizontal and vertical movement optimize sectioning precision, widely adopted in clinical diagnostics and neuroimaging sample preparation.
Delivered fully tested and verified to ensure reliable performance, the Leica RM 2155 supports demanding laboratory environments focused on synthetic biology research and advanced molecular diagnostics, making it an indispensable tool for laboratories specializing in tissue microdissection and live-cell imaging sample prep.
