Leica EM TRIM

Overview

The Leica EM TRIM offers rapid sample trimming for TEM, SEM, and Light Microscopy . With a tungsten carbide or diamond milling tool, block faces of biological specimens can be trimmed for ultramicrotomy (mesa milling), SEM samples can be faced off and pills can be safely milled flat for IR techniques. Dust is extracted by vacuum from the working area and the user is protected from the miller by a cover. No more razor blades required for trimming!

Key Features

  • The user can mill sample faces in any size from approx. 0.2mm square upwards without compression, cracks or tearing out of the sample
  • Safer and faster than conventional razor blade trimming
  • With the addition of a standard vacuum cleaner all hazardous waste and resin dust is kept away from the user
  • Comes with adaptors for all current ultramicrotome specimen holders
