About TWO POSITION BASES
These bases come with two threaded holes to enable insertion of support rod on either short or long side of base. Heavy, molded, cast-iron bases painted baked hammertone. Rods sold separately. Base size:
15 X 10
20 X 12
22 X 15
28 X 16cm. Efficient Parallel Sample HoldingThese bases are engineered to hold two slides or tubes firmly in parallel, streamlining preparation processes. Laboratories benefit from increased productivity and improved workflow by arranging samples side-by-side for direct comparison or simultaneous processing.
Precision and Stability CombinedWith its stainless steel frame, anodized aluminium slots, and non-slip rubber base, the equipment ensures both accurate and stable positioning. It minimizes sample movement, significantly reducing the risk of error or contamination during delicate laboratory procedures.
User-Friendly and Low MaintenanceAssembly and operation require no electrical power, making the base both cost-effective and straightforward to use. Its durable materials and easy-to-clean surfaces support consistent, trouble-free use in busy laboratory environments.
FAQs of TWO POSITION BASES:
Q: How do you use the TWO POSITION BASES to fix samples in place?
A: To use the base, simply insert your microscope slides or 10 ml tubes into the provided slots. Adjust them with the manual indicator slots, tighten the adjustment screws for a secure fit, and benefit from the non-slip rubber feet to maintain stability during preparation.
Q: What are the main applications of this microscope slide/tube positioner base?
A: This base is mainly used in laboratories for slide preparation, histology, and pathology tasks. It is suitable for any procedure that requires accurate parallel arrangement of two samples for examination or processing.
Q: When should laboratories consider using this product?
A: Laboratories should employ this base whenever precision alignment of two samples is crucial, particularly in comparative studies, staining, or sectioning during histological or pathological analyses.
Q: Where is the TWO POSITION BASES most beneficial for sample preparation?
A: This product is most beneficial in laboratory environments, especially in histology, pathology, or research labs where secure and parallel positioning of slides or tubes enhances sample preparation quality and efficiency.
Q: What benefits does the non-slip rubber base provide during laboratory work?
A: The non-slip rubber base ensures the unit remains steady on the work surface, preventing accidental shifting or tipping that could compromise sample integrity or safety during preparation.
Q: How accurate is the positioning of slides or tubes with this instrument?
A: The base guarantees precision alignment within 0.5 mm, allowing highly consistent placement and improved reproducibility in diagnostic or research processes.
Q: What is the process for cleaning and maintaining the base?
A: To clean the unit, wipe down the stainless steel and anodized aluminium parts with a suitable laboratory disinfectant. Regularly inspect and, if necessary, tighten the adjustment screws to maintain optimal performance and safety.
