Rotary microtome

The LEICA RM2155 is a robust, fully motorized rotary microtome designed for the precise production of thin sections from paraffin- or resin-embedded samples for histological, pathological, and materials analysis applications. The instrument combines motorized automation with manual fine control, ensuring reproducible sectioning quality even at high throughput rates.

Technical features:

- Motorized sectioning with adjustable speed and motorized coarse advance, optimizing workflow for routine and demanding specimens.
- Adjustable section thickness range from 0.5 µm to 60 µm with fine increments to accommodate varying material requirements.
- Specimen advance: 27 mm via stepper motor
- Vertical stroke: 70 mm
- Maximum sectioning range without retraction: 65 mm (without specimen orientation)
- Maximum sectioning range with retraction: 60 mm
- Specimen retraction in motorized cutting mode: 10, 30, 70 µm (adjustable depending on speed, can be deactivated)
- Specimen retraction in manual cutting mode: 5, 10, 15, 20 µm (can be deactivated)
- Movability of knife holder base: N/S travel ±25 mm, E/W travel ±20 mm
- Maximum specimen size (WxHxD): 50 x 60 x 40 mm
- Specimen orientation: horizontal 8°, vertical 8°, rotation ±90°, trimming steps 5, 15, 30 µm
- Electric coarse drive: 900 µm/s

Cutting motor:
- Cutting speed: 0; 0.5 – 420 mm/s
- Return stroke speed: approx. 120 – 420 mm/s

Application areas: Production of consistent tissue sections for microscopic analysis in histology, pathology, neuropathology, as well as in materials science investigations; suitable for both research and routine laboratory environments with high demands on sectioning precision and reproducibility.

The LEICA RM2155 stands out for its technical reliability, precise sectioning performance, and versatile application possibilities, making it a long-term investment for demanding laboratory processes.
