Compression Mounting Presses for producing metallographic mounts ranging from 1" to 2" diameter. These presses are available in a semi-automated (manual pressure adjustment with auto heating / cooling), an automated version (automated pressure and heating / cooling) and a fully automatic programmable version for 200 operator-created programs.Compression mounting consumables

Castable Vacuum Mounting - Vacuum mounting of castable mounting resins significantly improves penetration of voids and provide better edge retention. The LSSA-011 vacuum impregnation unit allows for pouring the resin under maximum vacuum and for mounting multiple specimens.

Hand and Belt Grinders
PENTA-5000 5-station hand grinder offers the small lab the ability to prepare samples for macro viewing within minutes. This hand grinder offers 5 stations for coarse to fine grinding. With the addition of the 5th station a near polished specimen can be obtained using a 1200 (P4000) grit SiC paper.

PENTA-7500 Belt Grinder for wet/dry coarse grinding.

Manual Polishers are available with fixed or variable speed manual polishing wheels, ranging in wheel sizes from 8" - 14" diameter.

Automated Polishing Heads - For semi-automated polishing of individual specimens.

Vibratory Polisher - The GIGA-0900 vibratory polisher is a 9-inch metallurgical vibratory polisher which offers the benefit of both frequency and voltage to control for polishing a wide range of sample types and sizes.
