Grinding and Polishing Machines
Grinding and Polishing Machines
Grinding and polishing determine whether the true microstructure will be visible, free of scratches and deformation. QATM offers the full range: manual Qpol M1 and M2, semi-automatic Qpol GO and PLUS, and Saphir with material removal measurement. Qpol XL and Qgrind XL are designed for high-throughput laboratories, and Qpol 250 / 300 BOT are fully automatic. Qpol Vibro is designed for final polishing without a deformation layer, and the mobile Qpol 30 for field metallography. The choice depends on the sample throughput and the required reproducibility.
QATM Qpol GO / Qpol PLUS – semi-automatic grinding and polishing machines
For laboratories that need reproducible, programmable preparation of specimens in batches – quality control, heat treatment companies, universities.
MoreQATM Qpol M1 / M2 – manual grinding and polishing machines
For low- and medium-throughput laboratories, training institutions and quality departments that need reliable manual grinding and polishing with reproducible parameters.
MoreQATM Saphir 550 / 560 with Rubin 520 – automatic grinding and polishing machines with removal measurement
For laboratories where controlled material removal matters (e.g. for coating thickness or case depth examinations) – the machine stops automatically when the set removal value is reached.
MoreQATM Qpol Vibro – vibratory polisher for final polishing
For laboratories that need a surface free of a deformation layer – for EBSD, microhardness, soft metals (Al, Cu, Ti) and sensitive materials.
MoreQATM Qpol XL / Qgrind XL – high-throughput polishing and plane grinding
For high-throughput industrial laboratories (automotive, steel, foundries) and System Lab lines.
MoreQATM Qpol 30 / Qgrind 100 – mobile grinder and belt grinder
Qpol 30 – for field metallography and non-destructive testing on equipment in service (pipelines, pressure vessels, turbines), when a specimen cannot be cut out and the surface is prepared for a replica or a portable hardness tester.
MoreQATM Qpol 250 BOT / Qpol 300 BOT – fully automatic grinding and polishing systems
For series production laboratories with a high specimen throughput, where the entire grinding–polishing–cleaning–drying cycle must run without human intervention and with fully reproducible results.
