The unit automates the process of manual knife sharpening to eliminate unevenness of the surface and ensures an equal bevel angle by moving the knife to and fro and automatically reverses the same at regular intervals. The unit consists of sturdy housing having a synchronous motor coupled with a gear system to achieve the task.
The unit is also provided with a transparent hinged cover to prevent deposition of dust etc. on the glass plate or moving parts. The knife holder along with knife comes in contact with the ground glass honing plate smoothly to prevent any damage to its surface while reversing it. An adjustable 0-60 minutes timer to do sharpening for a preset duration is a standard feature.
Knives of length upto 170 mm and thickness 12 mm can be accommodated on the unit. The entire unit comes in an attractively powder coated finish. The unit is supplied complete with, two honing plates, cord and plug, but without micro abrasive.
Suitable to work on 220 V, single phase, 50 Hz, AC supply.

It provides a rapid and easy means for the sectioning of natural tissue from 2 to 20 microns in step of 2 microns without distortion for high quality microscopic examination. Sections have the high resolution of cytological details required for pathological diagnosis, histochemistry, fluorescence, biochemistry, microscopy etc. Technique is simple and easy to learn. To withstand condensation inside the chamber, in built Rotary Microtome is made of entirely rustproof material fitted with anti roll device to avoid curling of sections. Plastic plate is adjustable in all directions.
Cryostat temperature ranges upto ?30?C as selected by Solid State Temperature Controller Cum Digital Indicator and is maintained within ? 2?C of set temperature and maintained by hermetically sealed compressor system.
Besides the Microtome Cryostat Automatic ?Deluxe Model? also incorporates Automatic Defrosting system, and delay timer. Control panel includes Digital Temperature Indicator cum Controller; Defrost Timer Main Switch, Delay Timer and Cooling Indicator and voltmeter.
Inner chamber is made of thick gauge stainless steel. Clear plastic cover, slip in type, at front opening suffices for working access to microtome.
