Encapsulated Mount Holder
The encapsulated mount holder allows the polishing of samples that have been encapsulated. The
three screws hold the potted samples in place. There are two magnets that hold an optical flat in place
so that the holder can be used with the Ultracollimator. To do so, simply place the optical flat in place
and mount the sample into the holder. Place the holder into the quick release and observe the dot on
the LCD screen. (*Note: The reference dot on the screen is just that, a reference point from which to
begin adjustment of the tilt. The sample that has been potted may not be parallel to the holder.) Adjust
tilt accordingly.
