Model 659 Disc Punch

Rapidly cut TEM discs from ductile and soft materials

The 659 is the preferred method for cutting TEM discs from metals, alloys and all ductile materials.

Design of the cutting piston avoids compression of the sample preventing plastic distortion of the disc during the punching process, particularly in the central region of the specimen.

The mechanical cam leverage ensures uniform application of pressure to the specimen while the exact fit between the cutting piston and the spring-loaded support piston guarantees a sharp cut edge and easy ejection of the punched disc.

The position of the punched area is easily seen and each punched disc is ejected into a small removable tray to simplify collection and allow fast, single motion multiple punching.

Available as Model 659.00001 the 3mm version or Model 659.00002 the 2.3mm version
