Yes. An optional surface flatness control package is available for this system, specified at 0.01 degree, and the flatness check can be viewed on the touchscreen when the optional device is installed.

In a rock core sample preparation workflow, this option is used when you want an on-machine confirmation step for end condition, rather than relying only on external checks. It can help labs tighten control of specimen preparation before rock mechanics and geotechnical testing.

Whether you need the flatness option typically depends on your test method requirements, your internal QA/QC acceptance criteria, and how you want to document preparation results across operators and shifts.
