Thanks to its automatic cycle management, SimpliVac, the new vacuum impregnation system from Buehler - ITW Test & Measurement GmbH, increases the efficiency of mounting on porous or friable samples. According to Buehler, this high-performance device ensures fast, reliable vacuuming without the need for an external pump, evacuating air trapped in the samples and enabling deep penetration of the epoxy resin into pores and cracks. The resulting excellent edge preservation facilitates preparation and microstructural analysis. This system is an additional tool for processing fragile samples, while the cold-coating method also enables heat-sensitive parts to be prepared.
The SimpliVac allows you to program the number of cycles, vacuum level and vacuum time to suit your needs. Several successive programmable cycles can also be run without any intervention, in masked time, thus optimizing the coating process. " These features make the SimpliVac a reliable ally, ensuring excellent reproducibility even with large sample quantities, while saving operators valuable time. The SimpliVac's spacious work chamber not only enables the simultaneous coating of a large number of small samples, but also the processing of bulky parts. Its compact size saves space on the laboratory bench, says the company. The new vacuum impregnation system is the ideal tool for quality control and research laboratories analyzing, among other things, fragile samples for the aerospace, electronics production, thermal spray coatings and additive manufacturing sectors."
For hot mounting, Buehler offers a machine comparable to the new SimpliVac: the SimpliMet 4000 mounting machine. Its speed and reliability make it an ideal solution for industrial environments with high requirements in terms of both operating capacity and coating quality.
