HT 3000: Automatic grinding machine

The solution for automatic cup wheel grinding- Optimized technology for reproducible analysis results, fast preparation times and cost-efficiency

Area of application

Use
Grinding of steel and pig iron samples for OES, XRF and other analytical procedures

Material
Steel and pig iron samples, diameter up to 50 mm, round or with parallel surfaces

Operation mode
Automatic, standalone, linear automation, robot automation

Advantages

Optimized sample preparation for spectroscopic analysis
The HT 3000 cup wheel grinding machine permits automated sample preparation for spectroscopic analysis with all its advantages. Operation with program-controlled grinding processes results in a considerable improvement in the reproducibility of sample preparation and therefore consistent analysis results at reduced time and cost.  

Highest grinding efficiency with lowest machining time
The HT 3000 is characterized by its rapid and precise grinding of iron samples in a wide range of geometries, the temperature of which may reach 800 °C. A pneumatic clamping unit enables symmetrical samples with a diameter of up to 60 mm to be gripped reliably and in a defined manner.  

Optimal technology
The HT 3000 is equipped with program-controlled intermediate cooling during the grinding processes to ensure optimum grinding results. This cooling system enables incandescent samples to be processed.
