Zimed Rotary Microtome are designed for precise and efficient tissue sectioning. They ensure high-quality histological samples for disease diagnosis and scientific analysis. The universal and standard clamps allow secure positioning of various sample types, while the 360° rotation and X-Y axis orientation ensure accurate sectioning. They also feature an advanced blade holder system to support both high and low-profile disposable blades, featuring precise lateral adjustment to maximize blade usage and reduce costs. Our products are widely used in pathology laboratories, research institutions, and medical facilities.

Frequently Asked Question
A rotary microtome is used to cut thin sections of biological specimens, typically embedded in paraffin, for microscopic examination.
Most rotary microtomes offer a section thickness range from 1 µm to 60 µm, depending on the model.
Zimed offers both manual and semi-automated rotary microtomes. Please refer to the product specifications for each model.
It is ideal for soft tissue, plant samples, and other paraffin-embedded specimens commonly used in histology and pathology labs.
Yes, most models are compatible with both high-profile and low-profile disposable blades.
In semi-automated models, yes. Cutting speed and feed settings can typically be adjusted for optimal sectioning
