Mineralogy & Petrographic
Petrography is the science of investigating microstructure, composition and inter-component relationship of rocks, ceramics, minerals, man-made materials etc.
The method of preparing petrographic samples for investigation is called "thin sectioning".
Preparing thin sections requires highly precise instruments and know how.
This unit is an instrument that will cut down to microns depending on the hardness of the material because mineralogical specimens usually contain hard and soft phases.
On the cutting module, the specimen is fixed on a holder and re-sectioned up to a thickness of few mm.
Can accommodate diamond and CBN cut-off discs.
Precision thin sectioning instrument for mineralogy.
