Cutting

Cutting is the first step in a complete material analysis, the selection of cutting machine and blades must match geometry and material properties of sample. TROJAN cutting products make the cutting process simple, fast and accurate.

TROJAN cutting blades and consumables have a unique formula and process, it can be fully cooled and reduce thermal damage. In addition, they can wipe off debris accumulation while cutting, easy to clean, can make the table and the entire cutting room clean.

Mounting

Hot Mounting: Hot mounting is ideal solution to get high quality, uniform size sample, as well as short process time. It is to use mounting compounds with certain pressure, temperature to make a sample.

Cold Mounting: TROJAN cold mounting resin system avoides sample from high temperature and pressure, making sample preparation results stable and reliable, efficient.

Grinding and polishing

The surface of mounting sample is not smooth. Grinding is to remove excess part of the sample with abrasive materials. Generally, we need rough grinding, fine grinding to final grinding.

Polishing is to use a small amount of polishing powder or polishing liquid to place on polishing cloth, later the sample is polished. Purpose of polishing is to remove the deformation and scratches during the grinding process, resulting in a scratched mirror surface for microscopic analysis of the microstructure.
