Technical Data Download: iqualitrol Cutting Machine XCut-349

Brief Introduction:

XCut-349 cutting machine is composed of main unit, electric control box, cutting room, motor, cooling system, cutting grinding wheel and other parts.

XCut-349 can cut diameter of 80mm within the round workpiece, but also can cut rectangular specimens within the cutting of hight 70mm, depth 100mm.

XCut-349 comes with a cooling system to prevent overheating and burning during the cutting process.

Cutting speed can be set in accordance with the different specimen so as to improve the quality of cutting samples.

Also the operator can choose cutting style in manual and automatic. It is more convenient for user to use because of the large cutting chamber and meanwhile it is s one of the sample preparation equipment of colleges and universities, factories and enterprises for metallographic test.

What is Metallographic Cutting?

When cutting a specimen from a larger piece of material, care must be taken to ensure that it is representative of the features found in the larger sample, or that it contains all the information required to investigate a feature of interest.

One problem is that preparation of the specimen may change the microstructure of the material, for example through heating, chemical attack, or mechanical damage. The amount of damage depends on the method by which the specimen is cut and the material itself.

Cutting with abrasives may cause a high amount of damage, while the use of a low-speed diamond saw can lessen the problems. There are many different cutting methods, although some are used only for specific specimen types. iqualitrol provides the iCut-864 low speed diamond saw for cutting OM (optical microscope), SEM (scanning electron microscope), and even TEM (transmission electron microscope) specimen.
