High-speed milling system for TEM, SEM, LM and pharmaceutical milling of pills

Trim your biological and industrials samples prior to ultramicrotomy fast and accurately with the EM RAPID high-speed milling system. The versatile specimen trimming device can be used for TEM, SEM and LM application and has also proven its use in pharmaceutical research where samples can be prepared for analysis of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) distribution on solid-dose pharmaceuticals without smearing.

Your benefits when working with the EM RAPID specimen trimming device

Control the feed for the milling cutter by selecting step sizes of 0.1, 1, 10, or 100 µm
Define the milling speed between 300 and 20,000 rpm
Easily approach to your sample with the auto-feed function
Accurate milling thanks to the perpendicular viewing of the embedded sample block
Safe working environment due to the low-noise extraction system with HEPA filter

Prepare exact parallel block-face edges

Easily trim exact parallel block-face edges every time for your TEM and array tomography application with the EM RAPID specimen trimming device. Attain straight ribbon arrays thanks to the raster positions of the specimen arm, which ensure exact 90° corners for any desired block-face size, making downstream sectioning as easy as possible. The EM RAPID is the perfect partner for your EM UC7 or ARTOS 3D ultramicrotome and ensures easy high quality sample sectioning.

Constantly monitor your sample material

With the EM RAPID milling system the unnecessary removal of sample material is eliminated through constant monitoring at all times during sample preparation. The 60 degree swivelling function of the sample holder enables a perpendicular viewing angle to determine the distance to your area of interest on in sample. There is no need to remove the sample which saves time during the trimming procedure whilst keeping your sample material safe. Additionally, benefit from highly precise layer removal thanks to the feed-hand wheel with selectable step-size advance.

Mill several pills simultaneously

Increase the efficiency and throughput for pharmaceutical milling applications with the multiple-pill holder of the EM RAPID. It allows glass slide placement directly under the near infrared (NIR) instrument, enabling you to prepare and investigate several tablets simultaneously.

Safe working environment with optimal illumination

Benefit from a safe particle-free working environment at all time thanks to the low-noise HEPA filter extraction unit and a protective cover which will allow the instrument to operate only when closed. To ensure clear observation of the sample the EM RAPID milling system features a stereo microscope with LED ring illumination to provide constant tracking during the entire milling process.
