Abstract:
An apparatus having a sample sectioning device including a cutting mechanism that is operable to cut sections from a sample and a sample holder that is operable to hold the sample. The apparatus further includes a drive system coupled with the sample holder to drive movement of the sample holder and a reciprocating member coupled to the drive system to drive vertical movement of the drive system. The reciprocating member to move in a reciprocating manner within an angle of rotation of less than 180 degrees. A surface orientation sensor may further be provided that is operable to sense an orientation of a surface of the sample held by the sample holder.

Claim (Index 8):
The method of  claim 1  further comprising specifying a configurable sectioning length, and wherein producing the vertical movement of the sample holder comprises moving the reciprocating member at a relatively slower speed of movement when cutting the section from the sample over the specified sectioning length and moving the reciprocating member at a relatively faster speed of movement at least one of immediately before or immediately after the movement over the specified sectioning length.
