Where Coarse Grinding Fits in Sample Preparation

Coarse grinding is generally used after cutting or sectioning to remove saw marks, burrs, oxide layers or uneven surfaces before final preparation.

Preparation Workflow

  1. 1Sectioning
  2. 2Coarse Grinding
  3. 3Fine Grinding / Polishing
  4. 4Microscopy or Spectrometer Analysis

Models & Variants

Choose the grinding format that matches the specimen material, preparation method and required surface finish.
