Maximum efficiency and user-friendliness
The HAF/2 is a semi-automatic milling machine specially developed for the preparation of non-ferrous samples. The HAF/2 is the "workhorse" in many laboratories worldwide and is used to produce perfect and reproducible sample surfaces for analysis by OES and XRF. The machine design allows for particularly simple and ergonomic operation. At the same time, great importance was attached to a high level of work safety.
Designed for the production of perfect samples
The hydro-pneumatic system enables a particularly even milling feed, resulting in a particularly smooth sample surface. Once the milling process is complete, the clamping device is quickly returned to the starting position so that the sample can be removed by the operator. As the machine is immediately available for the next sample, high throughput rates can be achieved with the HAF/2. The integrated frequency converter allows the rotation speed of the robust milling spindle to be easily adjusted using a selector switch. The feed speed of the support is infinitely variable. If required for the milling process, a coolant can be applied to the sample surface with pinpoint accuracy via a nozzle. All this enables the milling parameters to be optimally adapted to the specific properties of each sample material.
Ergonomic design
The HAF/2 has an input flap that can be easily opened with the aid of a gas pressure spring and held securely in the open position. The milling chamber of the HAF/2 has a large opening. This makes it particularly easy for the operator to clamp the sample in the chuck and adjust the milling depth. The three-jaw chuck enables the clamping of samples with different geometries up to a diameter of 70 mm. After closing the input flap, the milling process is started simply by pressing a button. The lining of the milling chamber has been designed in such a way that the chips are effectively discharged and collected in the drawer positioned underneath. The removal of chips from the milling chamber is supported by an extraction unit (optional), which is mounted inside the machine. The side cover can be removed in a few simple steps so that the machine compartment is freely accessible for cleaning and maintenance work.
High safety - low noise level
The HAF/2 sets standards for occupational safety. The semi-automatic sequence of the milling process and the use of a safety switch on the input flap ensure the health and safety of the operating personnel. Noise emissions have been minimized so that the machine can be easily integrated into a laboratory environment.
