Single Disc Grinder & Polisher GHEXA-GRP-EQP-AUT-011

The GHEXA-GRP-EQP-AUT-011 is a compact, high-performance single-disc grinder and polisher designed for efficient and precise metallographic sample preparation in space-constrained laboratories. Featuring an 8″ (203 mm) or 10″ (254 mm) disc, a powerful servo motor that maintains 10 N·m torque even at low speeds, a modern tempered glass touch panel, fully sealed working tray, retractable faucet, and tool-free disc removal, it combines ease of use, durability, and excellent surface quality. With stepless speed control (50–600 rpm), three preset speeds, and timing function, this machine is the ideal entry-to-mid-level solution for grinding and polishing metals, alloys, ceramics, composites, and coatings in research, teaching, and quality control environments.

Specifications

Key Applications & Uses

• Routine grinding and polishing of metallographic specimens (metals, alloys, ceramics, composites, coatings) in university teaching labs and small-to-medium research facilities
• Preparation of flat, scratch-free surfaces for optical microscopy, microhardness testing, and basic microstructure analysis
• Daily sample preparation in quality control, incoming inspection, and failure analysis laboratories with moderate throughput
• Processing of small to medium-sized mounted or unmounted specimens requiring consistent and reproducible results
• Supporting materials science education, entry-level R&D, pharma (implant material checks), biotech (biomaterial surfaces), and industrial labs needing a compact, reliable grinder-polisher
• Ideal for labs with limited bench space that still require professional-grade performance and ease of maintenance

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: What disc sizes does the GHEXA-GRP-EQP-AUT-011 support? A: It accommodates both 8″ (203 mm) and 10″ (254 mm) discs, giving flexibility for different sample sizes and throughput needs.

Q: Does the motor maintain performance at low speeds? A: Yes—the servo motor provides a constant 10 N·m torque even at 50 rpm, ensuring smooth and effective grinding/polishing without stalling or loss of power.

Q: How easy is it to clean and change discs? A: Extremely convenient—discs can be removed without tools, the retractable faucet allows fast rinsing, and the fully sealed tray prevents water from entering the machine.

Q: Is the machine suitable for teaching labs or shared spaces? A: Absolutely—its compact size, quiet operation (<50 dB), simple touch panel, and durable construction make it ideal for educational environments and multi-user facilities.

Q: Can it run for long periods without overheating? A: Yes—the servo motor and automatic temperature-sensing cooling system support extended operation, especially at lower speeds commonly used in polishing.

Q: What water supply is required? A: It needs a standard lab water line with max pressure <0.3 MPa (inlet G 3/4 thread, outlet Φ32 mm). An optional recirculating water tank is available for closed-loop use.

Q: Is it suitable for both grinding and polishing steps? A: Yes—the wide 50–600 rpm range, directional control, and robust torque make it effective for the entire metallographic sequence from coarse grinding to fine polishing.
