Metallographic Grinder/Polisher Machines

The Saphir 250 M1 is a manual, single-wheel grinding and polishing machine for working wheels Ø 200/250 mm featuring co- and contra-rotation of the working wheel. The shock-resistant plastic basin, powder coated Aluminium housing and high standard of technology inside the unit lend the requisites for quiet and smooth running and optimum preparation results.

The Saphir 250 M2 is a manual, double-wheel grinding and polishing machine for working wheels Ø 200/250 mm featuring co- and contra-rotation of the working wheel. The shock-resistant plastic basin, powder coated Aluminium housing and high standard of technology inside the unit lend the requisites for quiet and smooth running and optimum preparation results.

The Saphir 250 A1-ECO is a single-wheel grinding and polishing machine for working wheels Ø 200/250 mm which is conveniently operated by a 4.3" color touch screen. Entire preparation methods may be edited, stored, and protected by a user account management. Pressure, speed, and rotational direction of the polishing head are adjustable in the software. The optional Topas Eco dosing system provides automatic and programmable dosing that is controlled by the grinder/polisher touch screen.

The Saphir 250 A2-ECO is a dual-wheel grinding and polishing machine for working wheels Ø 200/250 mm which is conveniently operated by a 4.3" color touch screen. Entire preparation methods may be edited, stored, and protected by a user account management. Pressure, speed, and rotational direction of the polishing head are adjustable in the software. The optional Topas Eco dosing system provides automatic and programmable dosing that is controlled by the grinder/polisher touch screen.

The single wheel Saphir 350 Manual Grinding and Polishing System is built tough for high-volume specimen throughput using 250 mm (10") or 300 mm (12") wheel formats. High torque, variable speed motors are controlled by a sealed, touch button control panel. Because the wheel is recessed below the solid aluminum chassis, the Saphir 350 reduces abrasive splatter.

The Saphir 350 can be built either as a floor standing laboratory polishing table using SystemLab cabinets or as a table top version.

The dual wheel Saphir 360 Grinding and Polishing System is a heavy duty, large format manual preparation machine. Two powerful, high torque motors drive each recessed grinding and polishing wheel separately to provide fast removal rates. Modular electrical and mechanical components are easy to maintain and the large ball bearing spindle assembly is built for years of reliable service.

The Saphir 360 can be built as a bench top machine or combined with our SystemLab furniture for a seamless laboratory layout.

The single wheel Saphir 550 Specimen Preparation System is a semi-automatic, 12" format machine that handles a variety of sample preparation tasks. It features single and multiple sample modes of operation and variable speeds. Repeatability is guaranteed by the programmable, touch screen control panel.

Electronically regulated pneumatic sample loading ensures the correct sample grinding and polishing force. A powerful, belt-driven wheel and sample mover head can handle large sample sizes or a high volume application. Through excellent engineering and design, the Saphir 550 is easy to maintain and provides all the features that other machines consider options.

The Saphir 560 Specimen Preparation System is a dual wheel, 12 inch format, semi-automatic machine that handles a variety of sample preparation tasks. The centrally mounted head can swing between wheels for multi-step operations.

The Saphir 560 features single and multiple sample modes of operation and variable speeds. Full preparation programming guarantees repeatability using the graphical touch screen control panel.

Through excellent engineering and design, the ATM Saphir 560 is easy to maintain and provides all the features that other machines consider options

The Saphir X-Change brings fully automatic metallographic grinding and polishing to any lab.

Fast. Efficient. Affordable.

Designed and developed by ATM, the compact Systemautomat completely automates the grinding and polishing aspects of the specimen preparation process.

Simple touch-screen controls access all parameters and procedures. The Systemautomat ensures that each specimen is properly processed and guarantees reproducible results.

The ATM Stone Grinder is a water cooled, high speed machine for quickly plane grinding samples in a specimen holder. The coarse grit grinding stone turns at 1700 rpm to plane grind a typical batch of samples in less than 30 seconds. Both mounted and unmounted specimens are easy work for this high speed machine.

The system is designed to give the operator total control of the parameters, including the diamond dressing tool's interval, depth and speed at which it dresses the stone. Grinding depth (Z-axis) is programmable allowing the operator to remove the desired amount of material for any sample batch to within 0.1 mm accuracy.

The Jade 700 Water Cooled Dual Belt Grinder is the heavy duty champ of coarse grinding. Stainless steel belt covers resist corrosion while the replaceable solid wear plate keeps the grinding surface flat. The belt tracking system is precision machined from stainless steel and designed to stay locked, keeping the 4 x 36" belt running true.

The Jade 700 is an excellent choice for rough grinding chemistry specimens or quickly de-burring metallographic specimens.

The Saphir Vibro is the worlds most advanced vibratory polisher, engineered for an enhanced and unparalleled user experience. Prepare samples to a sub-micron final finish for Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD), SEM inspection, nano indentation and micro indentation hardness testing.
