Automatic grinder/polisher for sample preparation

Streamline your sample preparation with a versatile grinder and polisher that ensures precise control over grinding pressure and timing, enhancing the quality and consistency of metallographic examination.

Processes Metallic Samples with Precision

The Qpol GO from ATM Qness GmbH is designed for high-precision grinding and polishing of metallic samples. This versatile equipment features a compact design ideal for laboratory settings, integrating seamlessly with Qpol 250 M1/2 and Qpol 300 M1/2 machines for efficient sample processing. It allows precise control over grinding and polishing pressure and time, crucial for preparing metallographic and hardness test specimens in metallurgy, manufacturing, and research fields. The unit supports 1 to 4 samples with a variable single pressing force ranging from 5 to 45 N, and its LED-illuminated work area ensures visibility. The Qpol GO is complemented by the QDOSER GO dosing system for consistent application of diamond suspension and lubricant, enhancing sample preparation efficiency. The equipment’s aluminum case and powder-coated construction ensure durability, while the toolless sample holder clamping facilitates ease of use. With a robust 60 W drive power and compatibility with manual and automatic modes, the Qpol GO is an integral component for materialographic labs and quality control departments aiming for precision and reliability in sample preparation.
