Pathological Diagnosis Automatic Freezing Laboratory Rotary Microtome MDLK242
Advanced precision rotary microtome engineered for rapid frozen-section diagnosis and paraffin slicing. Features computerized thermostatic refrigeration, LCD temperature monitoring, and precision sectioning from 1–30 μm. Ideal for pathology labs, research institutions, and medical diagnostic centres requiring fast, accurate tissue preparation.


Clinical overview
The MDLK242 is an advanced rotary microtome engineered for rapid frozen-section diagnosis and routine paraffin sectioning in pathology laboratories. Built on precision roller cross-guide technology with strength alloy steel construction, it delivers consistent, high-quality tissue sections for soft tissues, hard tissues (bone, plastic, fibre, plant material), and hair samples. The system is extensively used in hospitals, epidemic prevention centres, agricultural research, and forestry institutions.
The integrated computerized thermostatic power semiconductor refrigeration system combines a Cryo-Scalpel and Cryo-Console with advanced nanometer-material construction for quiet, efficient operation. The 45° angle between console and scalpel ensures tissue adheres easily to the slice. Real-time LCD temperature monitoring of both components enables precise control, while automatic defrost recovery and rapid re-cooling (4–8 minutes to set temperature) minimize workflow interruption.
