A. DESCRIPTION

1. Design

FORCIPOL Series of instruments are avaible as Single Disc Units and Double Disc Units. The drive

elements are fixed on heavy duty aluminium alloyed casting. The rotating discs are mounted on ball

bearings which allow the application of high pressures to prepare even large specimens. Ball bearings

used provide quite and vibration free operation.

FORCIPOL uses a powerful high torque motor. The power transmission from the motor to the rotating

disc is made via belt drive. Motor overload protection switch ensures maintenance-free operation.

FORCIPOL grinders and polishers, both single or double disc versions are avaible with constant or

infinitely variable rotating speeds, with digital display. This allows the setting of the optimum speed for

each individual perparation process. The modern state of the art electronics in the form a compact

printed circuit board provides a smooth speed variation.

Water inlet and flexible water outlets with control valves for wet grinding and the facilility for

FORCIMAT attachment are standard features.

Motor on / off and water on / off buttons are mounted on the front panel.

FORCIPOL instruments can be used for grinding, lapping and polishing by quick and simple exchange of

discs which takes only a few seconds. When the number of specimens to be prepared increases,

FORCIPOL instruments can be fitted with FORCIMAT attachment for automation. FORCIMAT provides

high rate of sample preparation and frees the operator from the polishing procedures.

FORCIMAT can accomodate upto six specimens. By using the spacer rings, the diameter of the

specimens can vary from 25 to 40 mm. Also you can attach 3 x 50 sample holder.
