Sample preparation starts with “Cutting” and good “Cutting” means a good start. Selecting the right cut-off wheel ensures freedom from burn and distortion and is the best way to save time and consumables. Correct cutting produce specimens which are in perfect condition for the next preparation steps. Precision cutting is used for precise and deformation-free cutting of “Metals, Ceramics, Electronic Components, Crystals, Composites, Biomaterials, Sintered Carbides, Minerals, etc. Sample Preparation for Metallographic, Metallography, Metallurgical of sectioning for abrasive cutting, machines or equipment such as Metacut, Servocut, Micracut”
For minerological specimens, the surface is prepared for examination with a reflected light microscope and the preparation procedure is basically similar to the preparation of metallographic specimens.
