E-Prep 4x™ & PH-4i™
Overview
Grinder/Polisher with Power Head
The E-Prep 4x™ grinding and polishing machine, with the PH-4i™ power head, is a simple yet powerful system for semiautomatic operation, ideal for low to medium volume sample preparation requirements. The user-friendly microprocessor-based system makes it easy to enter parameters and operate, and allows quick changes to sample force, cycle time, platen speed and sample speed.
Either standard or magnetic 8″/203 mm or 10″/254 mm platens may be used with any adhesive, non-adhesive or magnetic system disc.
The PH-4i™ power head offers excellent versatility for low to medium volume semiautomatic sample preparation, using individual force mode. The pneumatic-electric system provides controlled sample force and allows between one and four samples up to 2″ (51 mm) diameter to be prepared simultaneously. The unique tilt-up design provides easy, unhindered access to the sample holder and platen, and eliminates the need to reposition the head during the preparation procedure.
