EnvironMet™ Recirculating Filter System
EnvironMet™ Recirculating Filter System
Ideal for laboratories concerned with water regulation and conservation requirements and/or environmental issues. Designed for use with manual and semi-automatic grinder-polishers, the EnvironMet® Filter System uses fresh water for each step in preparation. The filtration rate allows up to two grinder-polishers to operate off of one system. The 49-2500 EnvironMet® System is designed to filter up to 1μm and then recirculate the water. The 49-2501 EnvironMet® System is designed to filter water up to 100μm and uses fresh water. Both EnvironMet® Systems are powered by compressed air and require no electrical connections.
Burst Dispensing System
Burst Dispensing System
The Burst Dispensing System is a flexible, easy to operate dispensing system for all diamond and final polishing suspensions. With a variety of operating modes, solutions can be tailored for any Buehler grinder-polisher set-up. This system improves both productivity and consistency by dispensing suspensions at fixed intervals and configurable rates.
Platen Systems
Platen Systems
Versatile Magnetic Platen System: The magnetic system offers quick changing of surfaces with a variety of surfaces to choose from. The base of the system is an aluminum platen with a magnet attached. Many diamond grinding discs and polishing cloths (link to each consumables page) are available with a magnetic backing to affix directly to the magnetic platen. Magnetic carrier plates are also available for use with PSA backed products.
Sample Holders
Sample Holders
Sample holders are designed for use with Buehler's grinder-polishers to facilitate process automation and optimization. Many options for different sample sizes and shapes are available depending on the shapes, sizes, and capacities required.
Specialty Grinding & Polishing
Specialty Grinding & Polishing
Some applications can benefit from a specialty product or solution. Unique holders are available for processing circuit boards along with a variety of abrasive lapping discs and powders.
Final Polishing Suspension
Final Polishing Suspension
Final polishing suspensions are designed to remove the final layer of surface deformation and prepare a sample for analysis. Deformities may not be visible to the naked eye, but must be removed for some specimen analysis techniques.
Diamond Suspensions & Paste
Diamond Suspensions & Paste
Buehler's MetaDi diamond suspension polishing and paste products are tightly controlled to prevent any deviations in particle size or concentrations. This ensures reproducible polishing results and a high quality surface finish for every sample processed.
Polishing Cloths
Polishing Cloths
Polishing cloths for metallographic sample testing are used along with an abrasive to remove layers of surface deformation and expose the material structure for analysis.
Diamond Grinding Discs
Diamond Grinding Discs
Diamond grinding discs offer a long-wear surface that provides excellent surface flatness for a wide variety of materials. Fixed diamond particles in Buehler's diamond grinding discs provide consistent removal rates and extended lifetime with only an occasional dressing to maintain the surface. The combination of great edge retention, long lifetime, and consistency makes Buehler’s diamond grinding discs the perfect choice for controlled material removal on automated systems.
