The drying of biological specimens such as pollen, tissue, plants, insects, as well as industrial samples, for example MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) for SEM analysis can be prepared in the Leica EM CPD300 Critical Point Dryer, fully automatically.

To ensure a low CO2 consumption and a very short process time a new filler concept was developed. Special attention has been turned to your safety by implementing software controlled cut-off functions and integrating a waste separator.
