Precision Fiber Microtome RMT-55

Radical Fiber Microtome is used to produce accurate cross-sectional specimens of fiber for further examination under a microscope. Fiber cross sections of varying thickness from 200 µm are produced for microscopic examination, measurement and identification.
It is suitable for cutting the sections of fibers for determination of diameter in any form by means of a Projection/Digital Microscopes. In the case of dyed, bleached or finished fibers, the diameter as determined may by different from that of the same fibers not subjected to such treatments. Further, the estimate of fiber diameter of the same lot of wool at the various stages of processing may not be the same
Precision Fiber Microtome RMT-55

Freezing Microtome RMT-40

Freezing Microtome RMT-40
Freezing Microtome Model RMT - 40 is designed to the full purpose of accurate and quick diagnosis in surgery and also for the inspection of quality of rubbes and others. It has a table clamping device. The specimen rises accurately and automatically by a handle. The CO2 freezing attachment is provided with a hard rubber non-conducting plate between the corrugated surface to which the object is frozen and the rest of the apparatus, which prevents the conduction of heat from the other parts of the apparatus to the specimen; thus saving time and CO2. In operating this freezing attachment the valve at the bottom should first be closed and valve at the cylinder slightly opened to admit the gas into the tube.
The Automatic feed mechanism can be thrown out of action by turning the Index Finger to the extreme left or it may be set to cut sections of any desired thickness. Each division of the graduated scale marks 5 µm, the Microtome range being 5-40 µm. The sturdy Knife Holder can be tilted to a convenient angle of the Knife suitable to the object.
Specifications :-
Freezing Stage 35 mm. dia. Total Excursion of Feed 25 mm.
Feed Range 5 - 40 µm in steps of 5 µm each Weight 13 kg. approx.
Size (in case) 39 x 34 x 30 cm. High pressure flexible tubing 150 cm. (approx.)

Sliding Microtome RMT-45

Sliding Microtome Model RMT - 45 is a standard sectioning instrument especially designed for Research Laboratories for cutting sections of paraffin as well as celloiden embedded specimens.

Sliding Microtome RMT-45
The heavy knife block mounted on slideways can be actuated entirely by hand. The Microtome comprises of a stable heavy cast base stand on a precise sliding track over which slides a sturdy knife holder. Its smooth and efficient operation has a great advantage of vertical object feed. The object holder has rapid vertical adjustment by means of a lever mechanism. Placed below the object holder is a drip pan for excess alcohol or water.
Its knife holder rigidly supports a 120mm knife made from imported fine grain hard tool steel, which ensures accurate sectioning not only of soft tissues but also harder materials such as stem, root and other objects etc. Sliding Microtome is recommended to the labs where sections of fairly large specimens are required.


Feed adjustments 0-50 mm micron in steps of one micron each Overall Dimensions 41 x 35 x 28 cms.
Length of sliding track 40 cm. Net Weight 25 Kgs.
Automatic feed 1 - 25 Max. vertical object displacement 32 mm.
