The 7" color \nLCD touchscreen with keypad entry is used to control \nall functions with an intuitive interface optimized for \nefficiency. Five (5) user-defined preset buttons allow \nquick and easy RPM selections from 5-350 RPM in either \nclockwise or counterclockwise rotation. The timer function \nallows either count-up or countdown operation.\nDurable: Engineered and constructed using precision- \nmachined hard-anodized aluminum and stainless steel \ncomponents to provide maximum longevity.\nEasy to use: Straightforward controls and user-\nfriendly functions for quick, repeatable operation.\nEither precision, standard or magnetic 8"/203 mm or \n10"/254 mm platens may be used with any plain/adhesive \nbacked or magnetic system disc.\nPrecision/standard/magnetic platens, accessories \nand consumables are sold separately.\nItem Description\n5-2350 \t MetPrep 1x™, 100-240 V, 5-350 RPM\nDims: 15" W x 26" D x 9" H (381 x 660 x 230 mm)\nWeight: 66 lb. (30 kg)\nRetractable coolant nozzle allows quick and easy sample/bowl cleaning.\nThe 7" color LCD touchscreen is used to control all functions and is \nextremely easy to navigate, allowing greater efficiency among users. \nRetractable Nozzle\nLCD Touchscreen\n\n\nPage 3\n3\nPrecision/Standard Platens\nMagnetic Platens\nStandard System\nMagnetic System\nPrecision platens are lapped parallel within 2 microns. \nStandard aluminum platens are lapped parallel within \n25 microns. Both are then hard anodized for maximum wear \nresistance. They are used with plain/adhesive backed discs, \ndouble sided adhesive discs and disc holding bands, or when \nconverting to a magnetic platen using magnetic bases.\nMagnetic platens combine a precision or standard aluminum \nplaten with a cross-hatched magnetic surface for maximum \nflatness and adherence. Only one platen is needed through-\nout the grinding and polishing process, allowing all magnetic \nsystem cloths/abrasive discs or ferromagnetic discs to be \nutilized.\nItem Description\n5-2005\t\n Standard Platen, 8" (203 mm)\n5-6010\t\n Standard Platen, 10" (254 mm)\nItem Description\n5-2005M\t\n Standard Magnetic Platen, 8" (203 mm)\n5-6010M\t\n Standard Magnetic Platen, 10" (254 mm)\nPrecision Platen\nMagnetic Platen\nDisc Holding Bands\nDisc holding bands are made of anodized aluminum and \nsecure plain back discs to a standard platen. A protrusion \naround the top of the band allows variable sized discs \n(± 3 mm) to be secured.\nDisc Holding Band\nPlain Back SiC Disc\nStandard Platen\nItem Description\n125-10011\t\n 8" (203 mm)\n125-10012\t\n 10" (254 mm)\nFerromagnetic Support Discs\nThese reusable ferromagnetic stainless steel discs feature a \nnonslip backing and allow adhesive backed cloths/abrasive \ndiscs to be changed quickly and easily when using magnetic \nplatens.\nItem Description\n55-51000\t\n 8" (203 mm)\n55-51002\t\n 10" (254 mm)\nAdhesive Back Cloth\nFerromagnetic \nSupport Disc\nMagnetic Platen\nPTFE\nSupport Disc\nMagnetic Platen\nDouble Sided Adhesive Discs (Pk/10)\nPTFE Ferromagnetic Support Discs\nDouble sided adhesive discs are adhered to a standard platen \nand used to secure plain back silicon carbide abrasive discs. \nEach provides 25-75 disc pulls, depending on grit size, cycle \ntime and force.\nItem Description\n55-52000\t\n 8" (203 mm)\n55-52002\t\n 10" (254 mm)\nItem Description\n52-10005\t\n 8" (203 mm)\n52-10003\t\n 10" (254 mm)\nPlain Back SiC Disc\nDouble Sided Adhesive \nDisc\nStandard Platen\nThese reusable, durable discs combine a PTFE surface with a \nferromagnetic stainless steel substrate. This allows adhesive \nbacked abrasive discs/polishing cloths to be easily removed \nafter use without any adhesive transfer. The nonslip backing \nkeeps the disc in place, even for coarse grinding applications.\nAdhesive Back Disc\n10-1005\t\n Precision Platen, 8" (203 mm)\n10-1007\t\n Precision Platen, 10" (254 mm)\n10-1005M\t\n Precision Magnetic Platen, 8" (203 mm)\n10-1007M\t\n Precision Magnetic Platen, 10" (254 mm)\n\n\nPage 4\n4\nEquipment is subject to change due to \ninnovations/improvements at any time.\nBrochure #: MP1x-V2\nDesigned and Manufactured by \nAllied High Tech Products, Inc. \nin the USA\nVisit us online! www.alliedhightech.com\n310.635.2466 Worldwide / 800.675.1118 U.S. & Canada\n•\t\nCerritos, California\n•\t\nNorwalk, California\n•\t\nEdmond, Oklahoma\n
