[. . . ] Leica EG1150 Convenient and comfortable tissue embedding center Modern Technology for Comfortable Embedding The new Leica EG1150 modular tissue embedding center incorporates two separate components, the Leica EG1150 C cold plate and the Adjustable embedding center height In addition to the already low, comfortable working position, now you can even adjust the work surface height for optimum ergonomics. Left or right handed workflow Leica EG1150 H heated embedding module. The independent modules offer the flexibility to arrange embedding workflow in the direction that best suits your laboratory. [. . . ] Additionally, the cold plate can be used as a stand alone unit for pre- cooling blocks prior to sectioning. With the especially smooth-running, height-adjustable and rotary dispenser clip, paraffin can either be dispensed manually or by pushing the embedding mold against the clip. A third option, when working with large embedding molds, is to fold the dispenser clip backwards and activate the paraffin flow via the foot switch, available as an optional accessory. Leica EG1150 with foot switch (optional accessory) to activate paraffin flow. New: Spacious work surface Easy to operate instrument display The large work surface area with a new, robust finish allows you to set out multiple cassettes and molds in preparation for embedding, greatly improving specimen through put. All functions of the Leica EG1150 are controlled through the easy to read L. E. D display, including temperature settings for left and right hand warming trays, paraffin reservoir, and working surface. Work days and times can be programmed for automatic instrument operation.
