Description
Details

The CF-6000 is a top-of-the-line, fast-freezing cryosection microtome designed to achieve high quality tissue sections. The specimen holder has 360˚ specimen orientation, and cutting capabilities down to 1 µm sections. Section thickness ranges are adjustable from 1 µm to 100 µm. Trimming thickness ranges are adjustable from 5 µm to 500 µm.

The CF-6000 features a stable specimen clamp and flat specimen discs for stable, vibration-free cutting. The freezing chamber has a UV disinfection system and can be rapidly cooled to -35°C within one hour. This system comes with an anti-roll slide guide apparatus to aid in cutting frozen sections that do not curl. It has an automatic defrost system built in, with cool air circulation that automatically starts to cool air circulating around the cutting specimen, knife, and anti-roll guide.
