A. DESCRIPTION
1. Design
FORCIPOL Series of instruments are avaible as Single Disc Units and Double Disc Units. The drive
elements are fixed on heavy duty aluminium alloyed casting. The rotating discs are mounted on ball
bearings which allow the application of high pressures to prepare even large specimens. Ball bearings
used provide quite and vibration free operation.
FORCIPOL uses a powerful high torque motor. The power transmission from the motor to the rotating
disc is made via belt drive. Motor overload protection switch ensures maintenance-free operation.
FORCIPOL grinders and polishers, both single or double disc versions are avaible with constant or
infinitely variable rotating speeds, with digital display. This allows the setting of the optimum speed for
each individual perparation process. The modern state of the art electronics in the form a compact
printed circuit board provides a smooth speed variation.
Water inlet and flexible water outlets with control valves for wet grinding and the facilility for
FORCIMAT attachment are standard features.
Motor on / off and water on / off buttons are mounted on the front panel.
FORCIPOL instruments can be used for grinding, lapping and polishing by quick and simple exchange of
discs which takes only a few seconds. When the number of specimens to be prepared increases,
FORCIPOL instruments can be fitted with FORCIMAT attachment for automation. FORCIMAT provides
high rate of sample preparation and frees the operator from the polishing procedures.
FORCIMAT can accomodate upto six specimens. By using the spacer rings, the diameter of the
specimens can vary from 25 to 40 mm. Also you can attach 3 x 50 sample holder.

2. Consumables
In order to obtain scratchfree surfaces without deformation, successive material removal by
abrasives is necessary. Grinding is the next stage after sectioning. Grinding is divided into two processes:
Planar grinding and Fine grinding.The purpose of planar grinding is to obtain a level surface and to
remove scale, burrs or surface irregulation from the specimen.
To remove deformation from fine grinding and obtain a surface that is highly reflective, the
specimens must be polished before they can be examined under the microscope. Polishing is a complex
activity in which factors such as quality and suitability for the cloth, abrasive, polishing pressure,
polishing speed and duration need to be taken into account. The quality of the surface obtained after
the final polishing depends on all these factors and the finish of the surface on completion of each of the
previous stages.
Paper Grinding Discs
Coarse paper discs (up to 120 grit) are used for planar grinding. Fine grinding removes the deformations
resulting from coarse grinding to make the surface ready for polishing which is the final stage. Metkon
paper grinding discs are available as “Plain back” and “Foil Back” (CATCHY System).
CATCHY system has a high friction foil which makes the new SiC Foil back grinding papers stick very well
and at the same time very easy to remove again.
Traditional PSA back and self adhesive grinding papers are difficult to apply, difficult to remove. The Foil
back papers are removed easily, without leaving any trace of adhesive.
Water does not affect the shape of the foil at all. So it does not curl as traditional SiC Paper and stays flat
and ready for immediate or later reuse

COMPO Fine Grinding Discs
The COMPO Grinding discs are non-diamond grinding discs developed to be used with diamond
suspensions or Duo products. The honeycomb cell structure allows the uniform, regular distribution of
the periodically pulverized diamond abrasive suspension. The use of the abrasive suspension is
optimized, thereby reducing the diamond product’s consumption.
COMPO H & S Fine Grinding Discs
For single step fine grinding
Can be used with diamond suspensions or 2 in 1 duo diamond products
Shorter preparation time
COMPO-H is used for grinding of materials >200 HV
COMPO-S is used for grinding soft and non-ferrous materials
Improves efficiency by reducing processing steps
Provides optimum flatness and high edge retention

Polishing Clothes
There are three types of polishing clothes; Woven, Non-Woven and Flocked.
Woven cloths offer ‘hard surface’ polishing properties and guarantee flat pre-polishing, without
deterioration of the edges.
Non-woven cloths are used on very hard materials for high precision surface finishing such as
glass, quartz, sapphire and semi- conductors.
The Flocked cloths, guarantee a super-polished finish. The polishing duration must be as short as
possible, to avoid inclusions from being extracted.
