With the Zimmer Air and Electric Dermatomes you get accurate cuts time and time again. Both deliver smooth, high-speed cutting action which provides for virtually effortless cutting. Cut thicknesses are easily selected and constantly maintained using a calibrated dial. Uniform graft widths are maintained with width plates that insert quickly and easily. Our precision cutting blades are packaged sterile and require no lubrication for ultimate convenience.

Articulate

Manoeuvrable and easy-to-use, the Zimmer Air and Electric Dermatomes feature slim hand pieces that are easy to hold and control with either hand. Their sleek, articulate design provides a natural fit to enhance accuracy and lower hand fatigue. Both instruments, which are quiet and nearly vibration-free, are activated using a handle- mounted switch. Because safety is always a concern, we have incorporated a safety lever to help prevent accidental activation during handling.

Simple

The power of Zimmer’s skin grafting instruments does not stop with performance. We have also made them simple t maintain for convenience and durability. It starts with a motor that requires no lubrication and blades that are easily inserted without damaging the cutting edge. Our skin grafting instruments are designed for easy, thorough cleaning. They can be sterilised by both pre-vacuum and gravity air displacement steam sterilisation methods. If your instrument is ever in need of repair, Zimmer provides fast, effective service with loaner units available at no charge. The hand pieces and power supply include a one-year warranty.
