Most of the samples in our laboratory are pearlite steel, and metallographic cutting and sampling are done using a simple manual grinding wheel metallographic cutting machine;, The METCUT-10 model from MetLab in the United States features simple operation, good safety, and excellent cutting effect!

The purpose of metallographic analysis of pearlite steel is to detect the microstructure morphology after quenching and tempering. Usually, cutting and sampling are required first, followed by inlaying, grinding and polishing. After preparation, the microstructure is observed under a high magnification metallographic microscope to see if it is completely pearlite. Cutting sampling is the starting step, and the quality of cutting directly affects the difficulty and duration of subsequent preparation. Therefore, the ideal state is to quickly cut samples with accurate dimensions, flat cutting sections, no burns, and smaller deformation layers. A metallographic cutting machine that can meet these requirements is the ideal cutting equipment.

The metallographic cutting machine METCUT-10 we use is particularly simple to operate. I use it for cutting pearlite steel samples!


Select a grinding wheel cutting blade with a diameter of 10 inches and an American QMAXIS hardness of HRC30-45 for metallographic cutting; The cutting room is equipped with LED lighting, which is bright, clear and visible throughout the entire process; The T-shaped slot workbench is easy to load and unload, and has undergone anti-corrosion treatment, which is not easy to rust. It should be washed and maintained in a timely manner, always as smooth as new, with a particularly clean and refreshing feeling.

Multiple fixtures can be assembled to meet the clamping requirements for samples of different shapes. Equipped with a 50L large capacity three-level filtration cooling circulating water tank, the cooling effect is quite good, and there is no need to worry about the grinding wheel overheating and burning the sample.


Equipped with electronic brake and power overload protection device, it is safer to use. It is said to be easy to operate because you load each sample into a card, cover it with a protective cover, start the device, gently pull the handle from top to bottom, shut down, open the cover, take out the cut sample, which is still cold and dripping with water, and finish the work! Just pull and close, the sample is cut, it's very simple!

After preparation, the sample can be observed under a microscope. Here is the metallographic structure of our pearlite steel under a 1600X lens, presenting a clear, full and beautiful pearlite structure before our eyes. The so-called cutting a thousand times and grinding a thousand times is to see your true appearance! I will use a simple metallographic cutting machine, METCUT-10 imported from the United States, for this cutting. Of course, you can also use it!


This metallographic cutting machine is available at Kemai Testing (Nanjing) Co., Ltd. with a short delivery time, affordable price, and more professional service. You can try the machine first, and then buy it after trying it out. Hurry up and contact us, Baidu Yisou" Pulse detection” You can find it!
