Delta Cutter
2.3. Abrasive cutters with orbital technology

SECTIONING

Chop cutter using Orbital Technology. Orbital cutting technology offers advantages in
comparison to the traditional chop cut in that the contact area between abrasive wheel and
the sample is kept as small as possible (MACC = Minimal Area of Contact Cutting). This is
achieved by the eccentric rotation of the wheel. Thus the wheel continuously changes its
position and has only a small point of contact with the sample. With the orbital cutting
technology you receive fast and deformation-free cuts, and can cut large samples and/or
samples which are difficult to cut with the normal chop cut. Another advantage with orbital
cutting technology is the cooling agent can flow directly into the cutting area, increasing the
cooling efficiency and preventing unwanted overheating.

Phoenix 1000/2000 and 3000-models are members of the Buehler family of manual
grinder/polishers. They can be equipped with platen up to 300mm Their mineral casting
bases are corrosion proof, non-conductive, chemically inert and dimensionally stable. Its high
density and sound absorbing properties virtually eliminate unwanted vibration. Use of
mineral casting for the base structure of the Phoenix models help to produce equipment that
is literally "rock solid".

7. Fully Automated Preparation of Specimens


The BuehlerVanguard is a fully-automatic grinding and polishing system for sample
preparation. After the specimens have been fixed in the specimen holder, the operator
chooses the preparation parameters for up to six processing steps, which continue without
further operater handling. The platen exchange and cleaning procedure between the
preparation stages is microprocessor-controlled. The programming is done via user- friendly
software and can be entered or modified via easy-to-use controls on the touch panel. The
BuehlerVanguard system offers the possibility to use the central or individual load specimen
holders. A robotic arm transports the platen into the grinding polishing base. The abrasive
suspensions, such as diamond suspensions, are sprayed with an integrated dispensing system
onto the platen. In the cleaning station, the entire specimen holder is cleaned in an ultra-sonic
tank where it is cold or warm air-dried.
The compact size of BuehlerVanguard allows its use in the metallography laboratory without
large expenditure. The installation requires only about 1m on your table. Water inlet and
outlet are needed; as is a compressed air supply.

10. Manual Grinding Fixtures


Flat cross-sections with hand preparation is achievable with manual specimen holders. After
completion, the sample can be easily removed. For grinding, the sample is inserted into the
holder and locked with a screw. The sample can then be prepared until it reaches a ceramic
ring that has been set with the thickness of material that has to be removed. The ceramic ring
on the specimen holder prevents grinding beyond the preset measurement. The thin-section
hand specimen holder is particularly suitable for grinding thin-sections fixed on glass slides.
With both types of holder, the accuracy reaches the m-range.

18.4. OmniMet MHT Computer-assisted Test Systems


(Vickers and Knoop)
The computer-controlled hardness test systems from the OmniMet MHT series allow you to accomplish
hardness tests with computer control and less user involvment. The system essentially consists of the
following components:
BUEHLER hardness testing set (model upon request)
computer with monitor,keyboard and mouse
stepping motor-driven scanning stage (50x50 mm) with control console and Joystick
autofocus (available for option V models)
B/W video camera and image processing board in the PC
For the production of a series of measurements, you must define only the desired test and/or load
sequence and then position the sample. For this you move the sample with the joystick on the control
console to the zero point of the series of measurements (Sample edge or arbitrary starting position).
You can observe and find the position comfortably from the live image of the video camera on the
computer monitor. Afterwards you give the measuring direction, by turning an arrow on the screen in
the desired direction. Setting the indents takes place afterwards fully automatically with the help of the
stepping motor-driven scanning stage. The accurate determination of the hardness values takes place
afterwards either fully automatically via the image analysis program or interactively via the use of
measuring tools with the mouse. The report and graphic evaluation of the measurements is done
simply via one click on an icon.
OmniMet MHT V ......................................................................................................................................88-6000V
Fully automatic hardness testing system including:
MicroMet 5104, scanning stage, autofocus unit
computer with monitor, keyboard and mouse, software
3-axis controller board and joystick
B/W-videocamera and framegrabber within PC
OmniMet MHT H ......................................................................................................................................88-6600H
Semi automatic hardness testing system including:
MicroMet 5103, scanning stage, without autofocus unit
computer with monitor, keyboard and mouse, software
2-axis controller board and joystick
B/W-videocamera and framegrabber within PC
OmniMet MHT can also be delivered as a retrofit to existing hardness testers, including Semi-MacroVickers and
MacroVickers testers. If you do not have a Buehler hardness tester, please contact your dealer for details and
availability of the retrofit for your tester.

18.5. OmniMet HMS HardnessMeasuringSystem

ANALYSIS & DOCUMENTATION

OmniMet HMS is a user-friendly program for making hardness testing from the monitor of your
computer.
Measurement and documentation of Vickers and Knoop indentations can be done automatically by
Image Analysis, or by the operator moving the measuring lines with the mouse.
Along with individual measurement of single indents, profiles can be generated. The fully-automatic
measurement guarantees reproducable and operator-independent measurement results.
Fatigue-free operation and reproducibility of measurement results.
A pre-condition for installing the system is the connection of a video camera on the hardness tester.
Set-up and administration of the operation and report writing can be done with a few mouse-clicks.
Graphic display of the hardness values, results diagram displayed during the measurement.
Free definition of the measurement profile (line, zig-zag or irregular)
Calculation of the Case Hardness Depth according to DIN EN ISO 2639, statistical data calculation
Warning message, when the measureed diagonals are more than 5% (or a user defined value)
Conversion of the measurement data according to Rockwell or Brinell scales
Display of more than one hardness profile in one diagram
Twenty fields for entry for specimen identification, free definition of the report format
Data can be exported to Excel
Optional: the position of the table can be included in the report
The software comes with OmniMet I&M, featuring:
Interactive measurements on images (point to point measuring, parallel line measuring, circle
measurement)
OmniMet HMS ........................................................................................................................................... 88-6500
Hardness Measuring System consists of software, framegrabber and dongle
Minimum computer specification:
256 MB RAM
VGA Card minimum 1024 x 768 pixel, true color
10MB free space on the hard disk, one free PCI slot for the framegrabber
One free COM-Port in case of using a Buehler 5100 digital hardness tester
Operating System: Windows 2000/XP
Options:
B/W-Videocamera
