Sectioning EMPOWERING RESULTS Sectioning The goal of sectioning is to cut a representative sample from a part without causing microstructural damage. In short, a clean, straight, and cool cut. To accomplish this, metallographic sectioning is done in a water-cooled abrasive cut-off machine with a material-appropriate wheel. Abrasive Sectioning Blade Abrasive sectioning blades are the most commonly used wheels in metallurgical laboratories. Both aluminum oxide and silicon carbide provide excellent cuts at a low cost. Abrasive Types Aluminum Oxide (Al2O3) abrasive sectioning blades are very...

LECO EMPOWERING RESULTS LECO Sectioning Blade Guide Selecting a sectioning blade size for LECO Sectioning Machines depends on the maximum size sectioning blade diameter the saw can use, combined with the diameter of the arbor hole in the center of the sectioning blade. Maximum Size
