Q: What materials can the K10WBT cut?
The K10WBT is designed to cut various ferrous metals, including different types of steel and alloys, which are commonly used in metallurgical analysis. Its ability to handle a wide range of ferrous samples makes it ideal for precision cutting without material distortion.
Q: Why is the K10WBT considered a wet saw?
The K10WBT is a wet saw because it uses coolant or water to keep the cutting surface cool and prevent material burning during the cutting process. The wet operation ensures high-quality cuts by preventing sample distortion, keeping the blade cooler, and enhancing the overall efficiency of the cut.
Q: What are the benefits of using the K10WBT for metallurgical sample preparation?
This saw helps streamline metallurgical analysis by ensuring precision cuts without overheating or distorting the metal sample. The wet cutting method also reduces prep time, providing high-quality sectioning for analysis.
Q: What is the power rating and voltage requirement of the K10WBT?
The K10WBT is equipped with a 2 HP motor and can operate at either 220V or 440V on a 3-phase power supply, making it powerful enough for heavy-duty cutting of ferrous metals.
Q: How does the K10WBT help prevent material distortion?
The wet cutting process of the K10WBT keeps the material cool during sectioning, which prevents overheating and distortion of samples. This feature is crucial for metallurgical analysis, where precision is required.
Q: What industries or applications is the K10WBT best suited for?
The K10WBT is ideal for metallurgical laboratories, research facilities, and industries where accurate sectioning of ferrous metals such as steel and alloys is essential. It is also useful in quality control processes to assess material integrity.
Q: What coolant should be used with the K10WBT?
It is recommended to use a water-soluble coolant with a rust inhibitor with the K10WBT.
