Abrasive cutting is the most common method of sectioning to achieve a clean and efficient cut. Buehler's abrasive blades are designed to provide high quality sectioning results with no burning and minimal surface deformation.
Buehler carries a wide range of different metallographic abrasive blades for sectioning machines that can be used for many different applications. Our abrasive blades have diameter ranges from 5 in (127 mm) to 18 in (455 mm), arbor sizes ranging from 0.5 in (12.7 mm) to 1.25 in (31.75 mm), blade thicknesses ranging from 0.0020 in (0.5 mm) to 0.063 in (1.6 mm) and dimensions ranging from 5.9 in (150 mm) to 9 in (230 mm).
Our abrasive blades are frequently used for sectioning many different materials including but not limited to ferrous materials, soft, medium, hard, and tool steel, stainless steel, super alloys, titanium alloys, and zirconium alloys.
Abrasive Vises For Sectioning
Vising is a critical component to efficient sectioning. Buehler's abrasive vise offering for abrasive cutting machines provides reliable and versatile clamping options that ensure the sample is secure and properly presented for sectioning.
Diamond and CBN Blades
Diamond blades and CBN (Cubic Boron Nitride) cutting blades are the preferred blade type when delicate and precise sectioning is needed. Diamond and CBN blades also perform better than traditional abrasive blades when cutting certain materials, especially very hard materials.
Buehler carries many different CBN blades and diamond blades in various diameters and thicknesses for many materials and applications including general use, hard materials, ceramic and petrographic samples, plastics and polymers, steel, and many more. Refer to the Ordering chart below to find the ideal diamond blade or CBN blade for your material and end application.
Sectioning Coolants
Proper cooling is critical to the sectioning process of metallographic sample preparation. Buehler's line of cutting fluid coolants are designed to dissipate heat and remove swarf from the cutting point. Cutting coolant fluid helps to dissipate heat and remove swarf from the cutting point. This enables the abrasive, diamond, or CBN blade to achieve maximum cutting efficiency and prevent any unnecessary surface damage to the sample.
Our cutting fluid coolants and lubricants include water miscible and oil based coolants. We also carry cleaning agents, additives for coolants to prevent corrosion, and clear pastes for cutter windows to improve visibility.
Refer to the specifications and ordering information below to find the right coolant for your sectioning application.
Precision Vises
Often times, the samples being cut are not standard shapes and a unique clamping solution is required. Buehler's precision vises offer solutions for varying shapes and sizes to allow for precise and consistent cut locations.
Buehler has many different types of precision vises for various applications including slotted vises, sliding vises, single and double saddle chucks, glass slide chucks, mount chucks, wafer chucks, and more.
Refer to the Ordering tab below to find the ideal precision vise for your sectioning application.
Flange Sets
Flange sets support Diamond, CBN, and abrasive blades when using the IsoMet saw line. Choose the best diameter size flange depending on the size and type of material.
Our precision cutter flange sets support Diamond and CBN blades for best cut. Buehler carries aluminum flange sets and stainless steel flange sets of varying diameters. Find the ideal flange set for your application by using the Ordering section below.
Compression Mounting Powder & Pre-Molds
Compression mounting compounds utilize heat and pressure to encapsulate a specimen. Buehler's compression mounting media includes resins, phenolic powder, compression mounting powder and pre-molds that minimize shrinkage while protecting and preserving sample edges during the preparation process.
The choice of a compression mounting media compound depends on the goals of the lab and requirements of final analysis. Many different powders and pre-molds are available to meet the wide variety of needs including colored general purpose phenolic powder, hard mineral filled compounds, clear thermoplastic compounds and conductive compounds for SEM analysis.
Acrylic Mounting Systems
Acrylic mounting systems offer a short cure time and are recommended for mounting specimens that are sensitive to high pressures and temperatures. Buehler's offering includes acrylic liquid, powder and kits designed for different metallographic sample testing applications.
SamplKwick - acrylic mounting compound is designed for rapid and effective encapsulation of PCB coupons. By dipping coupon in Acrylic liquid prior to potting, Buehler¡¯s SamplKwick is able to wet and enter into smaller holes and recesses well, with ease offering good penetration and the edge retention needed for great electronics preparation. To reduce the viscosity of mixed acrylic, powder to liquid volume mixing ratio of 1:1 or 1.5:1 is preferable.
VariKleer - is ideally designed to use with pressure vessel to generate crystal clear acrylic mount resulting harden and minimum shrinkage, to determine the PCB coupon sample grinding to desire level. For crystal clear mount, SamplKup should be used rather than EPDM or Disposable mount.
VariDur - is a fast acrylic system containing filler resulted in harden mount particluarly for metals sample in short curing cycle with compare to epoxies and when edge retension is not critical.
Epoxy Mounting Systems
Epoxy mounting resin and hardener systems are recommended for mounting specimens that are sensitive to high pressures and temperatures. Buehler's epoxy resin and hardener products provide good physical adherence, low shrinkage, and excellent infiltration into pores.
Epoxy chemistry is a complex balance of many factors including shrinkage, cure time, viscosity and adherence. Each lab application requires a slightly different priority of these factors and our line of epoxy mounting resins and hardeners has been specially developed to provide the ideal product for your application.
Some applications require the performance of epoxies but demand a quick cure time. EpoKwick FC and EpoHeat CLR resins and hardeners are the ideal products for these applications.
