Frequently Asked Questions – Mopec 1000 Pathology Saw

What is the Mopec 1000 Pathology Saw used for?

The Mopec 1000 is an oscillating bone saw used in autopsy and dissection to remove the cranial cap, make linear cuts, and section small bone specimens. Its oscillating action cuts bone while soft tissue moves with the blade, reducing operator exposure during postmortem examination.

What blades fit the Mopec 1000 Pathology Saw?

How does the Mopec 1000 compare to the Mopec 810?

Both are oscillating pathology saws that share the same blade system, but the Mopec 1000 is positioned as the more economical option with a machined aluminum, weighted-bottom housing. The Mopec 810 uses a cast aluminum housing with a slender handle and a higher motor speed; both sit within the ARES Scientific morgue and pathology equipment range.

Is the Mopec 1000 a good alternative to the Stryker 810?

Yes. Mopec positions the 1000 as an economical alternative to the Stryker 810, with comparable oscillating cutting action and shared blade compatibility. It is a common choice where labs want Stryker-class cutting at a lower price point.

Does the Mopec 1000 have a duty cycle?

The 115V Mopec 1000 operates on a duty cycle of roughly 15 minutes on and 20 minutes off. Observing the duty cycle helps protect the motor and supports long service life.

How do you clean the Mopec 1000?

Clean the external surfaces with disinfecting sprays and wipes, using a non-abrasive mild detergent and a soft cloth, then dry. The saw uses a special lubrication system designed for long life, so no routine internal maintenance is required.
