The EM TXP, EM TRIMM2 and EM RAPID precision preparation and polishing systems from Leica Microsystems.
Leica’s EM series comprises specialised systems for the precision preparation of mechanical specimens and the creation of ‘pyramids’ from biological specimens embedded in epoxy resin.The unique design of the instruments allows them to perform several functions simultaneously – cutting, milling, grinding and polishing. The systems are equipped with a stereomicroscope, allowing the sample to be observed whilst the instrument is in operation. Systems are available for manual processing with the option of automatic control.
