In a rock core sample preparation workflow, this system supports safer, more controlled grinding by automating the cycle and keeping the specimen secured during material removal, instead of relying on manual hand grinding techniques.

Safety-related features and design elements include:

  • Pneumatic sample locking to hold the core securely during grinding
  • Electronic control through a 7-inch touchscreen, so the operator runs the programmed cycle from the interface
  • Recirculating water spray for wet grinding, which helps control dust and keep the process cleaner
  • Process memory and tracking, plus diamond grinding blade life monitoring to support planned maintenance and reduce wear-related issues
  • Ethernet remote connection for remote diagnostics and device data tracking, which can reduce on-site troubleshooting time

Overall safety performance also depends on your lab’s procedures, PPE, utility setup, splash and slurry handling, and lockout practices around rotating equipment.
