| With the sectioning technique serial sections can be produced, as opposed to the sawing technique in which the user has to calculate the loss of material caused by the thickness of the diamond coated saw blade. The speed of the rotating blade is approximately 600 rpm. The built-in water cooling device prevents overheating of the object and removes saw dust from the cutting edge and thus prolongs the lift time of the saw blade. The section thickness is set manually with a knurled screw on the object arm. Specimen Preparation: Drawing: Sawing technique |
