Working principle
Stepwise grinding & polishing
Each step removes the damage left by the previous one, rotating the direction by 90°, until only negligible relief remains and the structure is not smeared.
- P240 → P2000
- 90° rotation
- Diamond to mirror
Product overview
An 8-inch colour touchscreen and PLC control operate the ZMP-3000Z grinding and polishing cycle. After grinding is completed, the machine automatically switches to polishing. Timed cooling-water spraying and automatic addition of grinding and polishing fluid are coordinated throughout the process. The arrangement reduces the manual intervention required to move between the grinding and polishing stages of specimen preparation.
