<i>SampleCutter</i>

Description

The NETZSCH-Gerätebau GmbH SampleCutter is a specialized tool designed for preparing samples for Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) analysis. A fundamental requirement for obtaining consistent and reliable DSC data is ensuring optimal thermal contact between the sample and the bottom of the measurement pan, which necessitates a flat sample surface. This device facilitates the creation of precisely planar sample faces from polymer materials, accommodating a wide range of physical properties including soft, hard, and brittle specimens. It is particularly effective for preparing samples from challenging materials such as elastomers, highly filled compounds, and fiber-reinforced composites. The cutter can process both granular materials and small molded parts, providing a standardized method to enhance the reproducibility of thermal analysis results.
