The New 5100mz shares the User interface with the premium 7000smz-2, placing a wide range of adjustable parameters at the user’s fingertips:

  • Vibration frequency from 50 to 80 Hz
  • Adjustable amplitude from 0.5mm to 1.5mm
  • Fine control of the blade advance (min. 0.1 mm/sec)
  • Set start and finish position of blade travel
  • Remote controls allowing for sterile use in culture hood
  • Ice water bath easily removed for cleaning
  • Optional cold light and magnifier for clear observation
  • Optional Peltier cooled bath

Use in fully manual or the semi-automated "Slice window" mode which automatically remembers the start and finish position of the slice. This New entry-level Microtome is perfect for techniques such as histology, organotypic slice culture and low resolution imaging with a fixed blade holder and a mechanism Z axis error of ≈ 5-8µm.
