Buehler Vanguard® 2000

Fully Automatic Grinding-Polishing System.
Fully automated means that samples can be prepared from
start to finish without continuous operator involvement.
Just load up to six samples at a time,
select the preparation method,
and step away.
In as little as 15 to 20 minutes your samples will be finished;
cleaned, dried, and ready for analysis.
The Buehler Vanguard 2000’s microprocessor
based system allows the user to select from
six preinstalled methods or up to
44 individually created preparation methods.
After the method is started,
the robotic arm automatically loads one of
six selected platens onto the grinding-polishing base.
Next, the automatic head places the samples on
the platen while providing single or central load application.
A fully integrated dispensing system automatically
doses abrasive suspensions onto the
grinding/polishing surface.
