Working principle
How precision sectioning works
A rotating cut-off wheel advances into the specimen under flood coolant, keeping heat and deformation low enough to preserve the true section.
- Wheel matched to material
- 4-channel coolant
- Low feed rate protects edges
Product overview
The QG-5A combines manual cutting with automatic coolant circulation. Its split, two-level movable positioning platform supports both individual positioned cuts and successive positioned cuts. This arrangement is intended for taking specimen blocks and slices from different workpieces. Suitable specimen materials include metals, ceramics, rocks and electronic components, covering precision sampling tasks where the cut must be placed to suit the specimen.
