Our AP322KA automatic polishers by Hitech Europe are a benchmark in the metallographic preparation sector. This line of machines is designed to guarantee ease of use, maximum operational flexibility and an affordable investment, making them ideal for both research laboratories and production environments.
The AP322KA model stands out for the integration of a double plate compatible with diameters of 200, 230, 250 o 300 mm, thus offering maximum flexibility in cleaning operations. Thanks to the interchangeable heads, it is possible to work simultaneously on 3 or 5 samples in individual pressure mode, ensuring quick and efficient sample preparation.
The COMBO technology also allows you to operate both in central and individual pressure mode, adapting to the specific needs of the laboratory and the different types of materials processed.
The AP322KA automatic polishers allow you to completely customize the work cycle:
Adjustable plate speed clockwise and counterclockwise
Motorized head rotation with variable speed
Adjustable pneumatic strength via pressure switch
Timed management of the polishing cycle
These features ensure optimal, repeatable, and standardized sample preparation.
All the AP line polishers can be paired with the P4K electronic fluids dispenser, an advanced system and fully programmable via color touch screen. Il P4K is capable of managing up to 4 different abrasives, including:
Diamond fluids
Allumina
Colloidal silica
Each fluid is managed by a dedicated peristaltic pump, which regulate the supply based on the PLC settings. The operator can easily configure the number of dispenses per minute and their duration, achieving precise and consistent dosing throughout all stages of the process.
In addition, the P4K can be integrated with both Hitech Europe machines (via electrical connection) and other polishers, as it is fully autonomous.
Individual pressure allows for more precise and uniform preparation of individual samples, especially if they are made of different materials.
Yes, the P4K is designed to operate in standalone mode, making it compatible with other cleaning machine models.
The system supports fluid abrasives such as diamond, alumina, and colloidal silica in various grain sizes.
Yes, the AP322KA allows you to set and change speed, pressure, and cycle duration via the user interface.
