The Leica RM2255 provides reproducible sections of extraordinary quality whether in routine and research laboratories, in histology or in industrial materials and quality control applications. Its two-in-one design allows for motorized or manual sectioning, depending on your needs. The compact and ergonomic overall design of the motorised Leica RM2255 rotary microtome largely prevents repetitive stress injuries to the muscles and tendons. Section thickness range: 0.5 to 100 µm Trimming section thickness range: 1 – 600 µm Specimen feed: 28 mm ±1 mm, feed motion via step motor Vertical stroke: 70 mm Specimen retraction: Manual mode: 5 – 100 µm in 5-µm steps or off Motorised mode: speed-dependent or off Motorised coarse feed: 300 µm/s and 900 µm/s Cutting speed: 0.5 – 420 mm/s ±10% Maximum specimen size: 50 x 40 x 60 mm (W x D x H) Specimen orientation: horizontal: 8°, vertical: 8° Power requirements: 230 V - 50 Hz Power consumption: 340 VA Dimensions: 413 x 618 x 305 mm (W x D x H) Weight: approx. 37 kg Dimensions (control panel): 121 x 166 x 50 mm (W x D x H) Weight (control panel): approx. 0.660 kg
