The LEICA RM 2145 is a semi-motorized rotary microtome, especially designed for parafin specimens in routine and research applications. Histologists can benefit from this versatile and easy to use microtome. This ergonomic microtome uses a traditional handwheel for manual sectioning. Automated coarse specimen advance is available in three trimming increments and can also be performed manually. |
A newly designed ‘step motor operated micrometer feed system’ ensures precise advance by the selected section thickness. This precision feed guarantees consistent section thickness and high reproducible section quality.

-
Single-handed quick release specimen clamping system.
-
LED display of section thickness and section count.
