The EXAKT 312 is the ultimate sample preparation tool and pathology bone saw. Whether you’re in a hospital or university, it’s the safest and quickest way to gross tissues of all types. The saw is the result of years of practical experience and development cooperation with hospitals and universities, and fits perfectly in fast routine operations.
The saw does not cut, but grinds very precisely. The result is full preservation of the samples, clean surfaces with no artifacts, micro fractures or nicks. All cell information is preserved for even widely differing tissue densities. In addition, water cooling on the saw band insures uniform processing temperatures.
Because the diamond band grinds instead of cuts, there is no immediate risk of injury if the band is touched unintentionally – a first for occupational safety. Problematic samples with implants are accurately and safely processed. Material cannot get caught in the diamond band and so there is no risk of damage. The cutting guide is easy to control, clean and quiet. The water cooling reduces dust formation and thus, the risk of infection.
The stainless steel housing is systematically designed for optimum discharge of water and tissue. All run-off surfaces are sloped. Key elements of the saw such as doors, the top of the work table or the upper pulley of the saw blade are easy to remove without tools, and can be cleaned under running water. Rinsing immediately after use removes any tissue residues from the band, subsequent samples are not affected and the overall system is far easier to clean.
