Grinding & Polishing Machines
Manual & Automatic Metallographic Sample Preparation
Conation Grinding & Polishing Machines provide efficient grinding and polishing of mounted metallographic specimens with excellent repeatability, ergonomic operation and controlled platen motion and durable construction. Manual and fully automatic configurations separate routine operator-led work from repeated high-volume preparation.
Ideal for: Metallography Labs • Universities • Foundries • Heat Treatment • Automotive • Research

Consistent Surface Preparation for Accurate Metallography
Proper grinding and polishing removes deformation from sectioning, prepares a flat surface and produces the mirror finish essential for reliable microscopic examination.
Models & Variants
Highest automation appears first, followed by the single-disc automatic platform and the manual double and single disc machines.
