As a beginner in metallographic sample preparation, mastering the grinding process can seem challenging. Fortunately, the LaiZhou Jincheng Industrial Equipment Co., Ltd. has engineered a high-performance touchscreen metallographic grinder tailored to simplify your workflows with a user-friendly human-machine interface and an advanced four-speed constant-speed system. This guide will walk you through the touchscreen interface, stepwise speed control, and standard sample grinding workflows — empowering you to avoid common pitfalls and enhance your results with confidence and efficiency.
The grinder's touchscreen control panel is designed for clear, logical navigation enabling seamless mode switching, speed adjustments, and timer settings. You can toggle between pre-set grinding modes or customize parameters to fit your material’s unique demands. The menu system employs easily recognizable icons and prompts, minimizing the learning curve for newcomers.
Key touchscreen features include:
Such clarity in design dramatically cuts down your trial time, enabling you to focus on grinding consistency and sample quality.
Your metallographic samples require carefully graduated grinding stages to achieve the ideal surface finish. The grinder’s four-speed constant-speed system supports precisely that — from coarse pre-grinding to fine polishing.
Here’s how the four speeds typically apply in the grinding workflow:
| Grinding Stage | Recommended Speed (RPM) | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-grinding | 500 | Remove major sample irregularities |
| Intermediate grinding | 700 | Refine surface and reduce scratches |
| Fine grinding | 900 | Prepare for polishing with minimal abrasion |
| Polishing | 1100 | Achieve mirror-like surface finish |
Consistent rotational speed during each stage ensures uniform abrasion and superior metallographic sample quality.
Follow this standardized grinding process to maximize your success rate:
Always rinse and dry the sample between each stage to prevent contamination and scratching.
The machine’s durability is designed for long-term use in demanding lab environments, coupled with an industry-leading warranty and responsive after-sales service to support your metallographic journey.
