QATM Qpol Vibro – vibratory polisher for final polishing
Applications
For laboratories that need a surface free of a deformation layer – for EBSD, microhardness, soft metals (Al, Cu, Ti) and sensitive materials. The process runs without an operator; samples are polished under their own weight on a vibrating cloth with an oxide or colloidal suspension.
Key features
- Automatic vibration frequency control 60–120 Hz; low noise, vibration-damping design.
- Quick-change, magnetically held polishing bowl.
- Surface-Guard mode – reduces suspension crystallisation and sample corrosion after polishing.
- 15 preinstalled methods with matched consumables; up to 200 user methods (on the instrument or USB).
- Transparent, soft-closing acrylic hood; connection to external extraction.
