We had a bunch of issues with our 5030 coverslipper that have largely been resolved with the following "top tips"!:
a) Making sure that the coverslips we load into the machine are not statically-charged (they don't lie flat against each other - the pile feels "springy"). The brand we use only has occasional boxes of 100 coverslips like this, we just use them for hand-mounting instead. b) Scrupulous housekeeping (clean any DPX/glass splinters away regularly) Phil ----------------------------- Mr Philip Gibson Business Manager Directorate of Medicine Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Tel. 0191 2821511 DECT 21511 ******************************************************************************************************************** This message may contain confidential information.
