YD-315 Precision Rotary Microtome
Engineered for Accuracy | Built for Reliability
The YD-315 Rotary Microtome is engineered with imported Japanese components and cutting-edge design, delivering outstanding stability, durability, and high-precision sectioning. Ideal for routine histology, biological, and industrial applications, it ensures reproducible sectioning quality for both paraffin and plastic embedded samples.
Key Features
- Premium Japanese Components:
Equipped with a vertical cross-roller bearing mechanism, precision guide rail, ratchet rod, and screw mandrel — all imported from Japan — for smooth, maintenance-free operation and unmatched stability. - Accurate and Repeatable Sectioning:
Advanced mechanical system ensures consistent, high-quality sections, even in demanding applications. - Universal Compatibility:
Comes with both universal cassette clamp and standard specimen clamp, supporting a wide range of sample types. - Dual Safety Locking System:
Handwheel can be locked at any position, with an additional 12 o’clock lock for enhanced safety. Built-in dual fail-safe control ensures operator protection. - Smart Blade Holder Design:
Special blade carrier allows direct, safe use of disposable blades. Optional blade holders are compatible with steel knives or low/high profile blades, and support lateral displacement, allowing full blade length usage without repositioning. - Smooth Handwheel Movement:
A patented gravitational force compensation system provides an effortless and uniform handwheel motion for perfectly stretched sections. - Ergonomic and Safe Operation:
Includes finger protection guard, spacious waste tray, and a slot cover to shield internal components from debris. - Flexible Coarse Feed Direction:
Coarse feed wheel can rotate either clockwise or counterclockwise for operator convenience.
