Trimming Knife
(5)A well-trimmed sample is a requirement for perfect section ribbons.
When a sample is trimmed with glass knives or razor blades hard particles may be introduced in the surface or the pyramidal sides. These particles immediately cause knife marks in the diamond knives.

The DiATOME trim 45 is designed for precise trimming in ultramicrotomy and ensures optimal preparation of specimen blocks for ultrathin sectioning in light and electron microscopy. It produces pyramid faces inclined at a 45° angle.
In addition to the standard version, a variant with a 4 mm knife width is now available. This version has been specifically developed for large specimen blocks. Both variants can be used at room and cryo conditions.

The DiATOME trim 90 was developed for rectangular trimming of specimen blocks. Its design produces block sides at 90° providing a constant section size in contrast to the 45° pyramid geometry. It is primarily used for preparing blocks for serial sectioning for FIB, SBEM, or Array Tomography.
In addition to the standard version, a variant with a 4 mm blade width is now available. This version has been specifically designed for larger specimen blocks and features an additional edge at the base of the knife holder, enabling deep trimming for large serial sectioning projects. Both variants can be used at room and cryo temperatures.
