Buehler Isomet 2000

Image
Spectrographic have been refurbishing metallurgical equipment for many years now, and we keep on adding to our range of second hand machines. A new addition to our range of used metallurgical equipment is the Buehler Isomet 2000 Precision Cutting machine.   Precision cutting machines cause minimal damage and deformation of the sample and are particularly suited to fragile or very soft materials. Using the correct cutting parameters the diamond saw can cut virtually any type of material, using its unique diamond cutting wheels. It is ideally suited for cutting and slicing fragile materials including inter-metallic crystal structures, semiconductor substrates with multiple layers, delicate electronic components and items which would be damaged using other methods of cutting.       The Buehler cutter can be supplied with a combination of new and used equipment to meet your full material testing requirements. ...

Hot Mounting Resins - An Introduction

Image
Spectrographic supplies several different hot mount solutions for differing metallurgical applications.  Below is an overview of each resin that can be supplied, with the Omegapress 2 mounting press or can be used with other mounting press brands. Carbon Conductive Hot Mount The ideal compound for hot mounting of samples for observation using a scanning electron microscope.  The carbon content within the media offer a electrical conductive mounted sample. The cycle time is dependent of the mounting press used but we recommend the same parameters as standard bakelite. Clear Mounting Compound Clear mounting compound designed for use in a hot mounting press. This is a thermosetting resin which is heated at 150 to 180 degrees c. The cooling process is extended to prevent clouding of the resin. Diallyl Phthalate Media High quality edge mount compound for superior edge retention. This is a blue resin which is used in a hot mounting press for encapsulation o...
