All of the preparation steps necessary for the preparation of
specimens can be carried out on Abramin, e.g. plane grinding,
ordinary grinding, diamond disc grinding, polishing with diverse
polishing cloths and finally, fine polishing with OP-S. Plane grinding
can either be carried out with grinding paper or on the grindstone. In
order to be able to use the grindstone on Abramin, however, it is
necessary to mount a diamond truing device unit. If large specimens
or many specimens are to be prepared, it will be more advantageous
to carry out plane grinding on AbraPlan-20 as thereby much time and
many pieces of grinding paper can be saved. Abramin can be used
with specimen holder disc 160 mm dia. (see the Specimen Holders
User's Guide) and in order to get full benefit from the consumables it
is recommended that the various accessory discs are chosen in
accordance herewith.
Specimen holder 160 mm dia. can be combined with the following
preparation discs (Cat. No. in brackets):
Ø 305 mm disc (02426909) for non-adhesive grinding paper in
accordance with the Knuth-Rotor principle or Ø 230 mm disc
(02426908) for quick-adhesion of grinding paper with Double-
adhesive discs.
Ø 250 mm (02426907) or Ø 300 mm (02426906)
