New HistoCore BIOCUT Manual Rotary Microtome

The manual HistoCore BIOCUT clinical rotary microtome was designed with the user in mind and provides outstanding durability and precision. The new microtome can be personalized for improved comfort by adapting the coarse feed wheel turn direction to personal preference.

Maximized User Comfort and Efficiency 

Improve your comfort by adapting the coarse feed wheel turn direction to your personal preference. In addition the coarse feed wheel is located in an ergonomic position close to the user, helping reduce fatigue while trimming. 

Quick and Easy Cleaning in Seconds 

Shorten the cleaning time of your microtome from minutes to seconds with the new optional antistatic waste tray. 

Designed for High Quality Sections 

Produce high quality paraffin sections using Standard or Mega Cassettes for H&E, IHC and molecular techniques. The optional electrically cooled RM CoolClamp for standard cassettes allows to cool down and continuously cut multiple sections especially for IHC or serial sections. 

Semi-Automated microtomes

The Leica RM2245 represents the perfect combination of economic efficiency and user comfort. It is the instrument of choice for clinical histology, histopathology and research applications.

 

Easy and efficient

A high-precision motorized specimen feed enhances manual sectioning and results in efficient operation and maximum section reproducibility. 

Ergonomic

Combines proven technology and exemplary safety standards with functionality and ergonomic design in today's modern laboratories.

Comfort

The Leica-Patented Force Compensation System: for extremely smooth manual handwheel operation. Enhanced user comfort results in maximum workplace efficiency and high specimen throughput.

Safety

The integrated red finger protection guard shields the blade edge and rules out potential injuries.

Fully automated microtomes

The Leica RM2255 is designed for fully motorized sectioning of both paraffin and resin embedded specimens.

  • 2 in 1 design concept allows motorized as well as manual sectioning and provides reproducibility and quality sections.
  • Blend of proven high performance and precision microtome technology.
  • Patented gravitational force compensation system makes rotating the handwheel extremely smooth and light.

High-performance motorized and manual sectioning sets standards

  • Our Lateral Knife Holder Adjustment allows for the use of the entire length of a the blade, prolonging blade usage.
  • Our Precision Specimen Orientation is simple to adjust the specimen to an exact zero point or in measurable variables of up to 8° along the X/Y axis.
  • Consistent sectioning speed and force of the fully-automated cutting motor supports consistent, high-quality sectioning and helps to reduce musculoskeletal disorders caused by repetitive motion.
