FORCIPOL 352 is designed for grinding and polishing of very large specimens or a high volume of specimens in specimen holders. It reduces total preparation time for high-volume sample throughput.
Uses the same sample holders with FORCIPLAN 352 Planar Grinder. Therefore, it can be combined with FORCIPOL 352 to increase sample throughput. Specimen holders up to 210 mm diameter having 10 specimens can be prepared at the same with 350 mm diameter grinding discs.
• Up to 2X More Sample Throughput
• Ideal for Very Large or High Number of Specimens
• Perfectly Polished and Planar Specimen Surfaces
• Robust Steel Construction for Heavy-Duty Operations
• Avoid Contamination with Integrated Automatic Cleaning & Drying Station
• Safe Operation with Totally Enclosed Working Area
