Dakewe CT520 Cryostat Microtome | Medical Equipment Source

The Dakewe CT520 cryostat microtome delivers precise, reliable freezing and sectioning for demanding histology and pathology laboratory workflows. With innovative design, multiple cooling zones, and a bright touchscreen interface, it’s engineered for efficient, high-quality tissue processing and slide preparation in modern lab settings.

Key Features:

  • Large Freezing Capacity – Equipped with a 53 L cryochamber and a freeze shelf supporting up to 20 specimens, including 2 active Peltier cooling elements for rapid freezing.

  • Dual High-Performance Compressors – Alongside advanced thermoelectric cooling and temperature sensors, these ensure rapid, separate temperature control for the specimen head, blade holder, and freezing shelf.

  • 12.1‑in Color Touchscreen – A clear, bright UI simplifies temperature, mode selection, and defrost scheduling.

  • Precise Sectioning Mechanics – The semi‑automated microtome sits outside the chamber, paired with a high‑accuracy stepper motor and stable dual‑rail system for consistent specimen feed and cut quality.

  • Preset Temperature Control – Store presets (e.g., Regular, Thyroid, Fatty) for quick adaptation to diverse tissue types.

  • Defrosting & Maintenance Features – Schedule auto‑defrost, run UV disinfection, and monitor condensate levels. An algorithm‑driven compressor ensures low-noise, energy-efficient cooling.

  • Contamination Prevention – Anti-bacterial nano-silver coating and UV sterilization maintain hygienic operation.

  • Sensor Lighting – Adjustable brightness ensures optimal visibility during operation.

  • Reliability - Backed by dual compressors and an intelligent cooling strategy for long-term operation.

Applications:

  • Frozen histology sectioning in laboratory or pathology environments

  • Rapid tissue prep in medicine, surgical labs, and research units

  • Embedded slide stainer workflows where clean, precise sections are critical
