Machines for metallographic  sample preparation

Discover ATI machines for  metallographic sample preparation. Our metallographic preparation machines are designed for precise and efficient sample preparation, offering robust solutions for industries that require high-quality surface finishes. These machines ensure optimal results in the preparation of materials with complex microstructures, making them ideal for detailed analysis and accurate metallographic examination.

Cutting Machines:

• Ferrous metals (steel, iron, cast iron)
• Non-ferrous metals (aluminum, copper, brass, titanium, light alloys)
• Composite materials (carbon fiber, reinforced plastics)
• Ceramics and refractory materials
• Plastics (polymers, synthetic materials)
• Special alloys and superalloys

ATI Metallographic Cutting Machines are designed to ensure clean and precise cuts while minimizing heat generation and material alteration, which is crucial for proper sample preparation for subsequent analysis.

Mounting Presses:

ATI Metallographic Mounting Presses are designed to encapsulate and protect samples during the metallographic preparation process, providing a stable support that facilitates subsequent polishing and analysis stages. These presses are suitable for a wide range of materials, including ferrous and non-ferrous metals, special alloys, composite materials, ceramics, plastics, and polymers. By using thermosetting or thermoplastic resins, the mounting presses ensure well-protected samples, preserving the original characteristics of the materials and enabling precise, detailed analysis of their internal structures.

Polishing Machines:

ATI Metallographic Polishing Machines are designed to achieve high-quality surface finishes on metal, composite, ceramic, and polymer samples. These machines are ideal for preparing samples for detailed analysis by removing any imperfections or scratches created during the cutting and mounting processes. Suitable for a wide range of materials—including ferrous and non-ferrous metals, special alloys, composites, ceramics, and plastics—polishing machines use a combination of abrasive pads and polishing compounds to create smooth, mirror-like surfaces. This ensures accurate and consistent results for microscopic analysis and other advanced material examinations.

Why you should set up your own sample preparation laboratory:

• Better hardness results: Accurate sample preparation ensures perfect surfaces, minimizing errors in hardness measurements and delivering more reliable results.
• Versatility and adaptability: The machines are suitable for a wide range of materials (metals, alloys, ceramics, etc.), making the lab more versatile and ready to meet various testing needs.
• Automation and error reduction: Automating sample preparation processes reduces human error, improving consistency and quality of prepared samples, essential for accurate hardness testing.
• Support for advanced analysis: Optimal sample preparation is crucial for conducting advanced analyses and obtaining high-quality data, which is vital for hardness testing on complex materials.
