Alumina - Made with 99.9% pure aluminum oxide, these high-purity abrasives are available in powder, suspension and colloidal formulations. 

Diamond - Available in either poly or monocrystalline, this premium grade diamond abrasive is available in several carrier options, alcohol, compound, glycol, water; all being water-soluble.

Silica - Available in various particle sizes and formulations, these products are used primarily for final polishing applications to achieve ultra smooth surface finish with minimal material removal rate.

Lubricants enhance the polishing performance of diamond suspensions, compounds, and lapping films to by reducing friction, helping to increase and extend product efficiency. 

They are used in conjunction with compound, suspension(s), slurries and as an alternative to water on lapping films. They reduce friction and extend the life of the cloth and abrasive by keeping the surface wet and cooled.

All 16 and 32 oz. bottles are supplied with both a trigger sprayer and flip-top for manual dispensing. Gallon containers are supplied with an empty, prelabeled 16 oz. empty bottle for convenience.

The MultiPrep™ System enables precise semiautomatic sample preparation of a wide range of materials for microscopic (optical, SEM, FIB, TEM, AFM, etc.) evaluation. 

Capabilities include parallel polishing, angle polishing, site-specific polishing or any combination thereof. It provides reproducible results by eliminating inconsistencies between users, regardless of their skill. 

Dual micrometers (pitch and roll) allow precise sample tilt adjustments relative to the abrasive plane. A rigid Z-indexing spindle maintains the predefined geometric orientation throughout the grinding/polishing process. Digital indicators enable quantifiable material removal, which can be monitored real-time (front), or preset (rear) for unattended operation. Variable speed rotation and oscillation maximize use of the entire grinding/polishing disc and minimize artifacts. Adjustable load control expands its capability to handle a range of small (delicate) to large samples.

The MetPrep 3x™ grinding and polishing machines, with the PH™ line of power heads, are powerful systems for semiautomatic operation, ideal for low to high volume sample preparation requirements. Two combinations provide ideal solutions that accommodate any lab, application or material.

The microprocessor-based system allows the operator to use either the manual Input Mode to enter parameters throughout a procedure, or the user-defined preprogrammed Steps and Sequences Mode to select steps in a sequence as the procedure advances.

The PH-3™ power head offers maximum versatility for low to high volume semi-automatic sample preparation, using either central or individual sample force modes. The pneumatic-electric systems provide controlled sample force and allow up to nine (9) samples to be prepared simultaneously in central force and three (3) samples in individual force. The unique tilt-up design allows easy, unhindered access to the sample holder and platen, and eliminates the need to reposition the head during the preparation procedure.
