*Regarding processors*

*I also need to help on determine which processor for our core. Our
majority tissue is bone. *
*Right now, we like VIP serials because of vacuum/pressure plus agitation.
Please help me*
*on this VIP processor, I never used this kind one. We are very small
volume*
*core, also do frozen and plastic undecal bone. We have a Shandon Excelsior
now and feel the *
*vacuum volume for this 10 years old processor is not enough for bone. *
*Any input for this will be greatly appreciated. *
