The Leica SM2000 R sliding microtome has both automatic (up to 30 µm) and manual specimen feed via the coarse feed wheel to accommodate different individual needs. Four different knife holder positions provide the flexibility to section a variety of specimen sizes and types by altering the inclination angle of the knife. For critical samples, which usually require reduced cutting force, the knife can be positioned at an angle. Precise fine orientation allows samples to be accurately aligned with the knife. The microtome, with quick release specimen clamping system, can be equipped with Supermega universal cassette clamp or standard clamp for paraffin blocks. The clearance angle can be adjusted while the knife remains clamped. The line clamping principle ensures the greatest stability and optimum sectioning results. The knife or disposable blade holder can be fixed in the holder with minimal time and effort. A magnet on the back ensures safe and easy knife installation, and an integrated knife guard is provided for enhanced safety. The easy-to-use knife holder is designed to accommodate both standard knives and disposable blades.
The height adjustable feet equalize uneven work surfaces and can slightly incline the microtome to suit the resting position of the sledge to the user’s requirements. Optional accessories are available to suit a variety of sectioning requirements. The Leica SM2000 R Microtome has a modern ergonomic design and features an adjustable automatic high-precision feed mechanism. The SM2000 R is available fully equipped to meet most of today’s sliding microtome sectioning requirements or can be customized to meet more special applications. The Leica SM2000 R microtome can also be used for some specific industrial sectioning applications. The Leica SM2000 R sliding microtome offers low maintenance cross-roller-bearing slideways designed to section paraffin-embedded samples in routine histopathology laboratories.
