A device for pressing small, irregular metallographic samples with thermosetting plastics.
The mounting machine (metallographic sample mounting machine) is an experimental device used for pressing small, irregular metallographic samples with thermosetting plastics. It uses heat and pressure to encapsulate the sample in resin, facilitating subsequent polishing and microstructural observation. This equipment is mainly used in materials science, metal and non-metal analysis, and is suitable for laboratory conditions with altitude ≤1000 meters, temperature -10℃ to +40℃, humidity ≤85%, and no corrosive gases.
The equipment adopts a mechanical structure, with a handwheel driving a bevel gear and lead screw to control the movement of the lower die. An internal spring automatically compensates for the forming pressure, and a digital temperature controller and timer enable semi-automatic operation.
It supports temperature adjustment from 100-180℃ and a sample preparation cycle of 8-10 minutes. Standard sample sizes include Ø22×15mm, Ø30×15mm, and Ø45×18mm, and it is compatible with automatic polishing equipment.
The machine is equipped with a 650W heater, operates at 220V, has dimensions of 340×270×400mm, and a net weight of 33kg.
