On the production floor, there is a demand for high-volume sample preparation to release materials and products in a timely manner. In this case study of a high-volume steel mill, the customer needs to optimize their mounting, grinding, and polishing processes to increase sample throughput and repeatability. This presentation will demonstrate how automated sample preparation equipment provides excellent reproducibility, high sample throughput, superior process standardization, and ease of use.
