Geological Thin Section Preparation: LP70

 

 

Eight steps to success in geological thin section preparation

Logitech hold the worldwide standard for geological thin section preparation watch the video above for our eight steps to success in producing high quality geological thin sections across a variety of materials. By working with you we can provide a full system solution from bulk sample cutting, impregnation to final stage polishing. We can assist you in integrating the relevant processes to meet your thin section requirements such as weekly output, surface finish and geometric tolerances. 

LP70 Precision Lapping & Polishing System

Our newest addition to our wide range of lapping & polishing systems, the LP70 is the ideal solution for thin section preparation with the requirement of high throughput levels. With four workstations as standard the LP70 has the capacity to process >500 thin sections per week (from bonded to glass slide stage). The LP70 can facilitate increased material removal rates (MRR), with far greater control and reduced variations across workstations, with slower plate speeds and without driven-jig-arm functionality. The LP70 has a host of intuitive features with improved functionality allowing for increased material removal rates, greater levels of control and reliable process repeatability.
