Highest Preparation Quality and Reproducibility

We have a series of preparation methods for metallographic testing available as Aka-Briefs with corresponding Demo Kits. Our Aka-Briefs cover both material specific and general preparation methods. They are all developed with the aim of improving efficiency and achieving the highest preparation quality and accuracy possible in metallographic sample preparation.

High Quality and Cost Effective Metallographic Testing

In metallography, nowadays also called materialography to cover the entire range of available materials, requirements to the preparation quality rank very high. With our consumables and preparation methods, we help you to achieve the best possible result. By recommending the correct consumables, we can also make it possible to get faster results with an acceptable finish at a lower price.

With our solutions, your microstructural analysis will be fast, reproducible and cost efficient.

We have a complete range of consumables, to fulfil both the highest demands on quality and at the same time to accommodate the more economic solutions.

  • We think this micrograph of a titanium alloy sample is in an exceptionally fine colour. It shows part of a titanium alloy fastener (Ti6Al4V) examined in POL + Lambda Compensator at 100x. It has been prepared according to our Aka-Brief for titanium alloys which you can find on our website.

  • The colours of an etched surface hardened steel sample can be magnificent. Surface hardening is a heat treatment or mechanical process, where the outer layer of the material is made harder, while the core remains relatively soft. Surface hardening can be relevant if the wear resistance of a material must be improved. 
This is a prepared and etched surface hardened steel sample examined in BF at 50x. The first micrograph has been cropped with a focus on the hardened part of the material. The other micrograph shows both the core and the hardened part of the steel.

  • For optimal cold mounting with epoxy, you should start the mounting process with spraying your mounting cups with Aka-NoStick Liquid. Since the shrinkage is very low for epoxy resin the mounted sample can be very difficult to get out of the mounting cup, if you do not treat it with a no-stick liquid before filling with the mounting resin. When you have sprayed your mounting cup with Aka-NoStick Liquid, you have to let it dry before placing your cleaned sample in the mounting cup and pour the mounting resin over it. When the resin is cured, it will be easy to extract the mount. We recommend to clean and spray the mounting cup immediately after removing a mounted sample to have it ready for the next mount.

  • If you are preparing electronic components, we recommend that you use our Aka-Brief preparation method for this mix of composite materials. The diamond suspension used in close to all of our preparation methods is DiaUltra. It is a 2-in-1 diamond suspension that provides the same superior preparation results for any material hardness ranging from sintered carbides to aluminium and composite materials like electronic components as shown here. This is a prepared electronic component examined in BF, DIC and POL + Lambda Compensator at 200x. The sample has been prepared according to our Aka-Brief for electronic components, which you can find on our website.
