Professional Tissue Embedding Center - KD-BM5 & BL5 System
The KD-BM5 & BL5 Embedding Center is a high-performance, modular workstation designed to streamline the histology laboratory workflow. Featuring a modern 9-inch touch screen with a dynamic interface, this system offers precise control over every stage of the tissue embedding process. The combined design allows the units to be used individually or as a complete set, providing maximum flexibility for different laboratory layouts.
Engineered for efficiency, the center includes an automatic timed power on/off feature and a large 6L paraffin chamber with rapid heating capabilities. Advanced safety features such as overheat protection, liquid level alerts, and an impurity filtering system with cleaning reminders ensure reliable, long-term performance. With a dedicated large-capacity cooling workstation capable of holding approximately 140 embedding cassettes, the KD-BM5 & BL5 system is the ultimate solution for high-volume pathology and research environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the KD-BM5 and KD-BL5 be used separately?
A: Yes, the modular combined design allows them to be used individually or as a full set depending on your lab's needs.
Q: Does the system provide an alert for low paraffin levels?
A: Yes, the paraffin chamber is equipped with a liquid level alert to remind users when the wax is running low.
Q: How is the wax flow controlled?
A: The system features a dual-control wax flow switch, allowing users to choose between a hand switch or a foot pedal.
Q: How many cassettes can the cooling plate hold?
A: The large cooling workstation can hold approximately 140 embedding cassettes or 70 stainless steel base molds.
Q: Is the paraffin melting time adjustable?
A: The system includes a "strong heating" function that can be activated to shorten the initial melting time of paraffin.
Q: Does the unit have an automatic startup feature?
A: Yes, the center features automatic timed power on/off settings for any day and time of the week.
Q: What is the capacity of the thermal chambers?
A: There are two thermal chambers, each with a 2.3L capacity, which together can hold 420 dehydration cassettes.
Q: How does the system prevent wax overflow?
A: The dual heating waste wax chamber is equipped with a liquid level sensor specifically to prevent wax overflow.
Q: Can the brightness of the lights and screen be adjusted?
A: Yes, both the lighting and the 9-inch display screen have 0-100 infinite brightness adjustment settings.
Q: How often should the filters be cleaned?
A: The system features a filter cleaning reminder that can be set by the user between 1 and 30 days.
Q: What optional features are available for the KD-BM5?
A: Optional add-ons include a magnifying glass, camera, code scanning, embedding hammer, and electric heating forceps.
Q: What temperature does the cold spot maintain?
A: The cold spot working temperature is approximately 25°C, which is maintained lower than room temperature for precise block orientation.
