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
Designed around coordinated X, Y and Z axes, the ZQ-300F supports sectioning, slotting, thin flat slicing and cutting specimens into segments. Its cutting modes include vertical, layered, horizontal, coordinated and manual operation. These options address sampling tasks involving irregular shapes, automotive components and castings, where the position and direction of the cut need to suit the specimen and the intended examination.
