Many different magnetic platen systems for sample preparation are available to facilitate the use of different grinding & polishing surfaces on Buehler’s grinder-polishers.
Specialized, high friction surface allows for fast application and removal of surfaces during the preparation process. The base of the platen system is an aluminum platen with an Apex S film.
CarbiMet S and MicroCut S products are designed for use with this magnetic platen system.
Versatile Magnetic Platen System: The magnetic system offers quick changing of surfaces with a variety of surfaces to choose from. The base of the system is an aluminum platen with a magnet attached. Many diamond grinding discs and polishing cloths (link to each consumables page) are available with a magnetic backing to affix directly to the magnetic platen. Magnetic carrier plates are also available for use with PSA backed products.
