Laborate Star

A Fully Automatic Rotary Microtome is designed to produce highly precise and uniform tissue sections with minimal manual effort. In this instrument, the specimen feed and cutting process are controlled by an electric motor and microprocessor, allowing automatic sectioning once the settings are programmed.

The instrument consists of a specimen holder, blade holder, motorized feed mechanism, control panel, section thickness adjustment system, handwheel for manual control, and safety locking mechanisms. The tissue block is clamped in the specimen holder and advanced automatically toward a sharp disposable blade. The machine then cuts thin sections at a pre-set thickness, ensuring consistent and accurate results.

Fully automatic microtomes can cut sections typically ranging from 0.5 µm to 100 µm, depending on the model and laboratory requirements. The thin sections are collected on glass slides for staining and microscopic examination in diagnostic and research applications.

A Semi-Automatic Rotary Microtome is designed to produce uniform, thin slices of paraffin-embedded tissue samples. The instrument operates using a rotary handwheel combined with automated functions, allowing controlled advancement of the specimen toward a fixed blade. This design improves cutting accuracy, consistency, and user safety compared to fully manual microtomes.

The device typically consists of a specimen holder (chuck), microtome knife or disposable blade, feed mechanism, handwheel, section thickness control system, and safety locking system. In semi-automatic models, certain movements—such as specimen feed or trimming—are motor-assisted, while the operator still controls the cutting motion through the handwheel.

Semi-automatic rotary microtomes are capable of cutting sections ranging from about 0.5 µm to 60 µm, depending on the model and application. The thin sections produced are then placed on microscope slides, stained, and examined under a microscope for diagnostic, research, or educational purposes.

In histopathology, tissues are first fixed, processed, and embedded in paraffin wax. The microtome then cuts the paraffin-embedded tissue into very thin sections (usually 3–5 micrometers thick). These sections are placed on glass slides, stained, and examined under a microscope to detect diseases such as tumors, infections, and tissue abnormalities.

• Base or Frame – Provides stability to the instrument.

• Specimen Holder (Chuck) – Holds the paraffin block containing the tissue.

• Knife/Blade Holder – Holds the sharp cutting blade.

• Hand Wheel – Used to move the specimen towards the blade.

• Thickness Adjustment Knob – Sets the thickness of tissue sections.

A rotary microtome works by moving the tissue block up and down against a fixed knife using a rotating handwheel. With each rotation, the specimen advances by a very small, precisely controlled distance, allowing thin sections (usually 1–10 micrometers thick) to be cut smoothly and consistently. These thin sections are then placed on microscope slides for staining and observation.
