Equipment We Fix

Microtomes

A microtome is a precision instrument used in laboratories and medical facilities to slice thin sections of tissue samples for microscopic examination. It is an essential tool in histology, pathology, and other scientific disciplines that require the study of biological specimens at a cellular level.

Tissue Processors

A tissue processor is a vital piece of equipment used in histology laboratories to prepare tissue samples for microscopic examination. It plays a crucial role in the field of pathology, where accurate diagnosis and research depend on the quality of tissue samples.

Embedding Centers

An embedding center is a specialized workstation used in the process of preparing tissue samples for microscopic examination. The embedding process is a crucial step in histology, which involves the embedding of tissue specimens in a solid medium (usually paraffin wax) to facilitate the creation of thin sections for examination under a microscope. The embedding center is designed to aid in this process, providing the necessary tools and equipment for embedding tissues efficiently and accurately.

Automated Stainers

An automated stainer is a device used in the field of pathology and histology for staining biological tissue samples. Automated stainers play a vital role in modern pathology and histology laboratories, streamlining the staining process, saving time, and enhancing the efficiency of sample processing, which ultimately contributes to more accurate and precise diagnostic results.

Microscopes

A microscope is an indispensable tool in a pathology lab, where it is used to examine and analyze various types of biological specimens. Pathologists, medical scientists, and laboratory technicians use microscopes to study tissues, cells, and other microscopic structures.

Autoclaves

An autoclave is a device that uses steam and high pressure to sterilize objects, ensuring they are free from any harmful microorganisms. Autoclaves are designed to create an environment that eliminates bacteria, viruses, fungi, and spores, making them a crucial tool in preventing the spread of infections and diseases, making them essential for healthcare environments.

Cassette Printers

A Cassette Printer is a specialized device and its primary function is to print labels or information directly onto cassettes, which are small containers used for storing and organizing samples, specimens, or other items. One of the key features of a Cassette Printer is its ability to print high-quality, durable labels that are resistant to chemicals, moisture, and other environmental factors. This ensures that the labels remain intact and legible, even in demanding conditions.

Slide Printers

In a pathology lab, slide printers play a crucial role in the accurate and efficient processing of specimens. These specialized devices are designed to print important information directly onto glass slides, ensuring proper identification and traceability throughout the diagnostic process.

Grossing Hoods

A grossing hood, also known as a "grossing station" or "grossing table," is a specialized workspace used by pathologists or pathology assistants during the process of grossing surgical specimens. It is an essential tool for ensuring the safety of laboratory personnel while handling potentially infectious or hazardous materials. Proper maintenance of the grossing station helps ensure the safety of laboratory personnel and is necessary to prevent cross-contamination between different tissue samples.

Slide Scanners

In a pathology lab, a slide scanner is a crucial tool used for the digitalization of glass microscope slides. Pathologists often prepare tissue samples on glass slides, which are then examined under a microscope for diagnostic purposes. Maintaining a slide scanner in a pathology lab is crucial to ensure its optimal performance and longevity. Regular maintenance helps prevent technical issues and ensures that the slide scanner operates accurately and efficiently.
