Working principle
How mounting works
The specimen sits in a mould; resin flows and cures under heat and pressure, encasing thin or irregular parts and their edges in a regular cylinder for grinding.
- Hot or cold per material
- Vacuum impregnation
- Edge support
Product overview
The AXQ-5S is designed for metallographic specimen preparation by hot mounting. Its control system combines a touchscreen interface with a PLC to manage the mounting process, including temperature, time and cooling. Thermosetting and thermoplastic filling materials are supported. The machine brings these process controls together for preparing mounted specimens according to the selected material and mounting requirements.
