KD-3368AM Fully Automatic Computerized Rotary Microtome
Product Introduction
The KD-3368AM Fully Automatic Computerized Rotary Microtome is a high-precision laboratory instrument designed for automatic paraffin sectioning of biological tissue samples in pathology, histology, medical research, and clinical laboratories. It adopts an imported cross roller guide rail and precision screw drive system to ensure stable movement, accurate positioning, and excellent sectioning quality.
With intelligent program control, automatic and manual sectioning modes, adjustable cutting speed, OLED digital display, and multiple safety protection functions, the KD-3368AM provides reliable and efficient solutions for routine tissue sample preparation and microscopic analysis.

Performance Features
• High-precision mechanical structure
Adopts imported cross roller guide rails and precision screw transmission system to achieve smooth operation, high positioning accuracy, and consistent section quality.
• Advanced automatic drive system
Provides multiple operating modes including trimming, sectioning, rapid forward movement, and rapid backward movement for improved workflow efficiency.
• Intelligent control system
Supports quick switching between manual and automatic sectioning modes. Automatic cutting speed can be continuously adjusted according to different sample requirements.
• OLED digital display module
Real-time display of section thickness, trimming thickness, and section counting information. The display design provides clear visibility from multiple viewing angles.
• Flexible automatic sectioning modes
Offers both step-by-step (jog) sectioning and continuous automatic sectioning modes to meet different laboratory applications.
• Safe handwheel locking system
The handwheel can be locked at any position, improving operational safety and allowing precise sample positioning.
• Comprehensive safety protection
Equipped with emergency braking, alarm system, drive overload protection, and automatic sleep protection functions.
• Quick-change specimen holder system
Supports convenient replacement of specimen clamps. Paraffin block clamps and precision horizontal embedding cassette clamps are available as options.
• Optimized blade utilization design
The blade holder can move horizontally, allowing different blade areas to be used efficiently and extending blade service life.
• Safe blade protection structure
The red blade guard covers the cutting edge to improve operator safety. The push-type blade replacement design makes blade changing fast and convenient.
• Convenient waste management
The removable large-capacity magnetic waste tray allows easy cleaning and maintenance. The top cover provides storage space for disposable blades and accessories.

Working Principle
The KD-3368AM computerized rotary microtome uses a precision rotary drive mechanism to convert the rotational movement of the handwheel or motor drive into controlled linear movement of the specimen holder.
During operation, the embedded tissue sample moves precisely toward the microtome blade according to the programmed section thickness. The high-precision guide rail and screw drive system ensure stable sample advancement, producing uniform paraffin sections suitable for microscopic examination.
The automatic control system regulates sectioning speed, movement distance, and operation modes, allowing operators to achieve consistent section quality with reduced manual effort.
