The powerful, \nquiet motor drives both platens simultaneously and \nprovides constant high-torque output throughout \nthe speed range, in either 10-500 or 20-1,000 RPM \nconfigurations. A 7" color LCD touchscreen with keypad \nentry is used to control all functions with an intuitive \ninterface optimized for efficiency. Five (5) user-defined \npreset buttons allow quick and easy RPM selections in \neither clockwise or counterclockwise rotation. \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 standard or magnetic 8"/203 mm or 10"/254 mm \nplatens may be used with any plain/adhesive backed or \nmagnetic system disc.\nStandard/magnetic platens, accessories and \nconsumables are sold separately.\nItem Description\n5-7650 \t TwinPrep 5x™, 100-240 V, 10-500 RPM\n5-7650-M \t TwinPrep 5x™, 100-240 V, 20-1,000 RPM\nDims: 31" W x 26" D x 9.5" H (780 x 660 x 240 mm)\nWeight: 136 lb. (62 kg)\nRetractable coolant nozzles allow 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\nStandard Platens\nDisc Holding Bands\nDouble Sided Adhesive Discs (Pk/10)\nMagnetic Platens\nFerromagnetic Support Discs\nPTFE Ferromagnetic Support Discs\nStandard System\nMagnetic System\nStandard aluminum platens are precision lapped parallel, \nthen hard anodized for maximum wear resistance. They are \nused with plain/adhesive backed discs, double-sided \nadhesive discs and disc holding bands, or when converting to \na magnetic platen using magnetic bases.\nMagnetic platens combine a standard aluminum platen with \na cross-hatched magnetic surface for maximum flatness and \nadherence. Only one platen is needed throughout the grinding \nand polishing process, allowing all magnetic system cloths/\nabrasive discs or ferromagnetic discs to be utilized.\nItem Description\n5-2005\t\n 8" (203 mm)\n5-6010\t\n 10" (254 mm)\nItem Description\n5-2005M\t\n 8" (203 mm)\n5-6010M\t\n 10" (254 mm)\nStandard Platen\nMagnetic Platen\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.\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.\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)\nItem Description\n55-51000\t\n 8" (203 mm)\n55-51002\t\n 10" (254 mm)\nAdhesive Back Cloth\nFerromagnetic \nSupport Disc\nMagnetic Platen\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 \nwith a ferromagnetic stainless steel substrate. This allows \nadhesive backed abrasive discs/polishing cloths to be easily \nremoved after use without any adhesive transfer. The nonslip \nbacking keeps the disc in place, even for coarse grinding \napplications.\nAdhesive Back Disc\nPTFE\nSupport Disc\nMagnetic Platen\n\n\nPage 4\n4\nEquipment is subject to change due to \ninnovations/improvements at any time.\nBrochure #: TP5x-2024\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
