INGRAM-WARD Compact Combination Thin Section Saw/Grinder

This versatile workhorse is all a lab needs to prepare professional-quality thin sections ranging from mounted samples to micron-precise finished slides.

• Rim Width: 3/8"
• Weight: 125 lb.
• Motor: ½ hp
• Blade: 5" Sintered
• User Manual Provided

Both the sawblade and cup wheel are mounted on the same end of a 11/4" diameter, belt-driven stainless steel shaft to maximize stability and consistency. A 5" precision cutoff saw, combined with a fine-tunable 6" grinder adjustable to micrometer thinness, ensures topnotch cutting performance while precision angular-contact bearings conform to exacting tolerances and offer years of trouble-free service.

The vacuum holds the slides to either side of the chuck plate; a quick flip of a valve, and the vacuum switches from the saw to cut off any excess. The chuck plate holds standard 27 x 46 mm petrographic slides. Dual valves direct the coolant flow to either the sawblade or the cup wheel. A user’s manual is included.

 : Vacuum and coolant systems and a coolant trap, required, are available separately.
