A rigid \nZ-indexing spindle maintains the predefined geometric \norientation throughout the grinding/polishing process. \nDigital measurement indicators enable quantifiable \nmaterial removal, which can be monitored real-time \n(front), or be preset (rear) for unattended operation. \nVariable speed rotation and oscillation maximize use of \nthe entire grinding/polishing disc and minimize artifacts. \nAdjustable load control expands its capability to handle \na range of small (delicate) to large samples. \nPrecision/magnetic platens, accessories and \nconsumables are sold separately.\nItem Description\n15-2200-12 MultiPrep™ System, 12", 100-240 V\nDims: 22" W x 28" D x 24" H (560 x 711 x 610 mm)\nWeight: 125 lb.

The intuitive interface includes icons and is \noptimized for productivity and function.\nThe gear-drive system allows preparation of larger, hard, \ntough or encapsulated materials. It delivers nonslip rotation \nfor higher load-bearing applications. \nShown with #15-1045 Multipurpose Fixture\nPrecision Platens\nPrecision platens are lapped parallel within 2 µm and hard \nanodized for maximum wear resistance. They are used with \nplain or adhesive back discs. Magnetic platens combine a \nprecision platen with a cross-hatched magnetic surface for \nmaximum flatness and adherence. This allows all magnetic \nsystem cloths/abrasive discs or ferromagnetic discs to be \nutilized.\nItem Description\n10-1010\t\n Precision Platen, 12" (305 mm)\n10-1010M\t\n Precision Magnetic Platen, 12" (305 mm)\nStandard Platen\nMagnetic Platen\n\n\nPage 4\n4\nAccessories\nA wide variety of standard fixtures and accessories are available.
