The importance of cutting in materialographic sample preparation is often underestimated: many samples are sectioned using unsuitable cutting wheels, which cause a considerable amount of time to be wasted both in the cutting itself and in the subsequent preparation steps.
In Qatm's webinar 'The correct choice of cutting wheels - how to choose and what happens if you choose wrongly' on Tuesday 28 May, our experts will show you how cutting wheels affect and vary the results of materialographic sample preparation. Using different types of discs on samples of different materials, you will also discover the effects caused by an incorrect choice of disc.
