Price P.O.R.

The PELCO easiCore Rotary Disc Cutter is a precision instrument designed to align and cut discs from or drill holes into a wide range of materials using brass core drills and abrasive slurry. The rotating tool is lowered onto the specimen with the force controlled by an easily adjustable counterbalanced weight. The most common application for the instrument is to cut 3.0mm discs for TEM, but a range of metric and Imperial core drill diameters are available for other applications, from semiconductors to battery materials.

Unlike ultrasonic disc cutters that can only cut brittle materials, the gentle lapping action of the PELCO easiCore can cut soft metals, hard ceramics and even fragile crystals. Specimens may be mounted on fixtures that are compatible with the PELCO Precision Wire Saw, PELCO Precision Low Speed Saw, or PELCO Dimpler for simplification of workflow. Once on the stage, the sample may be precisely positioned in both the X and Y directions by using the sliding X-Y stage with rulers marked at 1mm intervals.

There are several cutting modes including an automatic stop with an optional timed delay to ensure that samples are fully cut even if they were mounted or cut slightly asymmetrically. There is also a timed mode up to 120 minutes. The variable speed is adjustable from 100?1500 RPM and the load on the specimen is continuously variable up to 1kg. For long cuts where abrasive replenishment is needed, the PELCO easiCore is compatible with the PELCO Abrasive Dispenser for timed/measured dispense of abrasive suspensions.

Features:

Manufactured in USA
Gentle lapping action cuts virtually all materials including those which cannot be cut with an ultrasonic cutter.
High tolerance rotational accuracy prevents cracking and chipping of even extremely delicate materials.
Portability of PELCO Dimpler, PELCO Precision Wire Saw, and PELCO Precision Low Speed Saw specimen mounts increases throughput and maximises specimen yield.
Capable of cutting discs from 2.3-25mm.
Constant gravity feed mechanism and automatic termination minimise operator supervision.
Auto-stop switch incorporates a time delay which eliminates the possibility of premature shut-off.
LED ring light illuminates the stage and allows for easy alignment of the region of interest to the core drill.
Measured X-Y stage allows for precision positioning during repeated sampling.
