Sectioning
A full range of abrasive and precision cutting accessories and consumables for sectioning saw equipment for metallography testing. Specimen preparation for microstructural examination starts with a quality cut. The proper equipment with firm and stable vising minimizes the depth of deformation on the sample surface. The abrasive and precision saws save time by limiting the number of steps needed to analyze samples after sectioning. Find the right abrasive cutter, precision cutter or sectioning consumables product for your material testing application below.
Abrasive Blades
Buehler’s Abrasive Blades are designed to provide high quality sectioning results with no burning and minimal surface deformation. This can reduce the amount of grinding & polishing required later in the preparation process.
Diamond and CBN Blades for Sectioning
Diamond blades and CBN (Cubic Boron Nitride) cutting blades are the preferred blade type when delicate and precise sectioning is needed. Diamond and CBN blades also perform better than traditional abrasive blades when cutting certain materials, especially very hard materials.
Abrasive Vises for Sectioning
Vising is a critical component to efficient sectioning. Buehler's abrasive vise offering for abrasive cutting machines provides reliable and versatile clamping options that ensure the sample is secure and properly presented for sectioning
Precision Vises for Sectioning
Buehler has many different types of precision vises for various applications including slotted vises, sliding vises, single and double saddle chucks, glass slide chucks, mount chucks, wafer chucks, and more.
Coolants for Sectioning
Our cutting fluid coolants and lubricants include water miscible and oil based coolants. We also carry cleaning agents, additives for coolants to prevent corrosion, and clear pastes for cutter windows to improve visibility.
