A Rotary Microtome is a precision instrument used in histology and pathology laboratories for cutting thin sections of biological specimens embedded in paraffin or resin blocks. It employs a rotary cutting motion with a sharp blade to produce uniform tissue sections for microscopic examination. Rotary microtomes offer adjustable section thickness settings, specimen advance mechanisms, and ergonomic designs for precise and efficient sectioning. Key specifications include:

• Section thickness range: Adjustable cutting settings typically ranging from 1 to 50 micrometers for precise control over section thickness
• Specimen size: Compatibility with various sizes and shapes of tissue blocks or specimens for versatile sectioning applications
• Cutting mechanism: Rotary action with manual or motorized drive systems for smooth and consistent sectioning
• Specimen orientation: Options for horizontal or vertical specimen orientation to accommodate different cutting preferences and specimen types
• Safety features: Blade guards, hand rests, and blade retractors to prevent accidents and ensure user safety
