REPAIR AND RECERTIFICATION SERVICES FOR MICROTOME PRODUCTS

Microtome is proud to offer our customers a comprehensive repair and recertification service (R&R™️) for all our products, ensuring that normal wear and tear or accidental damage to a pod or cassette do not put your reticles at risk, or oblige you to purchase expensive replacements.

Pod Repair

Enhancing the Value of Ownership

Microtome’s unique R&R™ program extends the operational lifespan of your equipment, hence enhancing the value of ownership of a Microtome pod and cassette. Our R&R™ program repairs any worn or damaged product and returns it to full operational capability, whenever this is possible. This means that even severely damaged units, like the critically damaged reticle pod example, can be rebuilt and returned to production for significantly less than the cost of a new replacement. Most importantly, the recertification of every repaired cassette ensures that the original manufacturing specifications are restored, which is essential for safe reticle handling by robotic reticle handling systems.

Repair Services

Under our R&R™ program, we offer a full range of repair services for your Microtome products. Our team of skilled technicians are trained to diagnose and repair any issues, ensuring that your equipment is back up and running as quickly as possible. Whether it’s a minor repair or a major overhaul, you can trust Microtome to provide high-quality service every time.

Recertification Services

Mishandling that may not produce visible damage to a reticle pod or cassette can potentially cause distortion of the cassette assembly and put your reticles at risk of mechanical damage during robotic handling. For this reason, we recommend that any reticle pod that receives “hard handling” – with or without visible damage being caused – should be sent to us for checking and repair. Every cassette receives a new certificate of conformity to the original manufacturing specifications after R&R™, assuring you of the highest standard of protection for your valuable reticles.

Upgrade Options

As part of our commitment to continuous product improvement, Microtome offers upgrade options for older products to bring them up to a newer specification. For example, we have an option to change the orientation of the pod handle to improve the ergonomics when loading the pod onto high load ports. We have also improved the drainage of our lock mechanisms to accelerate pod drying after wet cleaning. These design changes are available as an upgrade through R&R™. This allows all Microtome customers to benefit from the latest advancements in our reticle pod technology, keeping their inventory in optimum condition and providing the best possible performance for years to come.

Our Commitment to Quality

With over 30 years of experience in the industry, Microtome is a trusted name in support and repair services for Microtome products. Our team of experts is highly skilled and knowledgeable, ensuring that your equipment is in good hands. We use only the highest quality parts and materials in our repairs, guaranteeing that your Microtome products will be restored to like-new condition.

Customer Satisfaction

At Microtome, customer satisfaction is our top priority. Our team is dedicated to providing exceptional support and repair services to ensure that your Microtome products continue to perform at their best.

We sometimes find ways to improve our products while performing R&R™. For example, the damage to a reticle pod shown in the image on the right was caused by an operator dropping the pod. Although a pod is not designed to withstand such an extreme event, it was apparent that the pod corner could be strengthened to resist such damage. The corner of the pod was strengthened, and the design change was made immediately, as part of our commitment to provide total customer satisfaction with the performance and durability of Microtome products.
