THE MICROM HM560 Incorporates a unique refrigeration system: specimen and knife have separate refrigeration systems and may be set to -50°C and -35°C respectively. Easily programmable temperature setting for sectioning different tissues. The automatic micro/macro feed system is outside the freezing chamber and guarantees the highest precision and flexibility – from 0.5 microns to 500 microns. Due to the expanded horizontal feed of 40.000 µm, applications in routine and research are possible.
The design of the cooling chamber and of the innovative magnetic knife holder permits simplified cleaning and disinfection. Switching between disposable and steel knives is now possible without purchasing different knife holders.

The MICROM HM 550 series is a uniquely progressive concept for use with frozen specimens of all types. User applications define module selection and make even serial sectioning enjoyable.

The HM 550 basic instrument offers a chamber temperature down to -35°C. A fine /trim motorized feed system from 0,5 to 300 µm, automatic approach system, movable chamber illumination and automatic specimen retraction, are some of the many standard features.

Various configurations like motorized sectioning, object cooling, Vacutome system etc. available.

The MICROM HM 505 N is ergonomically designed to provide excellent performance and versatility. The instrument will provide consistent reproducibility in the preparation of frozen sections in clinical histology laboratories requiring economical dependable performance.

HM 505 N is completely manual with a wheel controlled coarse feed. The instrument feature electronic temperature control down to -35°C, fast freezing device with Peltier down to -55°C and a spacious, easy to clean cooling chamber.
