The M-Prep 5™ grinding/polishing machine is recommended for manual sample preparation of a wide  
variety of materials. Either 8" (203 mm) or 10" (250 mm) standard or magnetic platens can be used. 
A powerful 0.5 HP (375 W) DC motor provides constant high-torque output throughout the speed range, 
displayed from either 10-500 or 20-990 RPM. The stable, corrosion-resistant RIM, aluminum and 
stainless steel construction  ensures maximum durability. Standard/magnetic platens are sold separately.

Standard aluminum 
platens are precision 
lapped parallel, then hard 
anodized (HRC 60+) for 
maximum wear resistance. 
They are used with 
adhesive backed discs, 
double sided adhesive 
discs and paper holding 
bands, or when converting 
to a magnetic platen using 
magnetic bases.

Standard Platen
Magnetic platens combine a standard aluminum platen 
with a cross-hatched magnetic surface for maximum 
flatness and adherence. Only one platen is needed 
throughout the grinding and polishing process, allowing 
all magnetic system cloths/abrasive discs or 
ferromagnetic discs to be utilized.

PTFE ferromagnetic support discs combine a PTFE 
surface with a rigid stainless steel disc. This allows 
adhesive backed abrasive discs/polishing cloths to 
be easily removed after use without any adhesive 
transfer. The nonslip backing keeps the disc in place 
even for coarse grinding.

Double sided adhesive 
discs are adhered to 
a standard platen and 
used to secure plain 
back silicon carbide 
abrasive discs. Each 
provides 25-75 disc pulls 
depending on grit size, 
cycle time and force.
