Clips

A variety of clips hold thin samples on edge for encapsulation. Use metal for compression mounting and plastic for cold mounting. Clips with stand-offs isolate the sample, eliminating gaps or air bubbles at the clip/sample interface.

 

Mounting Cups

2-part cups are reusable and have a separate bottom allowing easy mount removal after curing. Metric size cups are transparent, and compatible with UV light curing resins.

Silicone mold cups are compatible with epoxy or acrylic mounting resins. These reusable cups are available in a range of variable shapes to accommodate larger samples and are 1” deep with thick walls for maximum durability, shape retention and heat dissipation.

Mixing/Stirring

These mixing cups are suitable for mixing epoxy and acrylic resins and feature a graduated scale to help with precise volumetric measurements.

Glass Slides/Mounts

Adhere cover slips to delicate or small samples to support and protect the surface when preparing unencapsulated cross-sections. Use slides for preparing petrographic thin sections or when using vacuum fixtures.

TechPress 3x™

The TechPress 3x™, Electro-Hydraulic Automatic Mounting Press is used to encapsulate samples for metallographic preparation.


The microprocessor-based system allows the operator to use either manual input or a preloaded database of 80 adjustable programs, which include parameters for mold size, single mount or duplexing, mounting resin, curing time and temperature, cooling time and pressure.


It features an intuitive interface using a 7" color LCD touchscreen to control all functions, and is selectable between 10 languages. Mold assemblies can be changed from 25 mm through 2", and include a duplexing spacer, allowing two mounts per cycle to be produced at one time.

Durable: Engineered and constructed using precision machined aluminum and stainless steel components to provide maximum longevity.

Easy to use: Easy to Use: User-friendly functions allow quick, easy, repeatable operation.

Safe: A safety sensor requires full closure of the bayonet cap before cycle start to ensure operator protection.
