QATM cut-off machines for metallographic sample preparation are ideally suited for accurate, low-deformation sectioning. The product portfolio covers a wide range of cutting capacities, from small convenient benchtop models to large industrial scale cutters. With a choice of manual or automatic axes, QATM cut-off machines meet the needs of any metallographic laboratory.
In terms of cut-off machine operation, selecting the proper feed speed, angle of approach and cutting mode will minimize sample deformation. Wet abrasive sectioning involves the use of a recirculation system to supply a stream of coolant to the sample during the cut. This helps to prevent heat damage and to remove cutting debris from the wheel and specimen.
Different requirements and conditions place a variety of demands on clamping tools and cutting equipment. The wide range of QATM clamping tools provides variable solutions.
