Used HERBERT ARNOLD 72/360 #9096754 for sale

HERBERT ARNOLD 72/360 is a crystal growing, sawing, and slicing equipment that makes it possible to grow, shape, and trim large single crystals of different materials into specific shapes. It has been used in a variety of scientific applications such as material characterization, research, and product development. HERBERT ARNOLD 72/360 utilizes a unique high-temperature and vacuum chamber that is capable of producing precise temperatures and pressures ideal for the growth of crystals. The system utilizes an induction furnace to heat the growth material to a desired temperature before it is placed into the chamber. In the chamber, the chemically pure growth material is positioned in a helium-filled atmosphere subject to precise temperatures, controlled viscosity, and pressure conditions. These conditions enable the hydrothermal crystallization of the growth material, resulting in the creation of large monocrystalline rods of various sizes. After the crystals have been created, they can be cut and shaped into their desired shape by a diamond saw before being placed in the rapid-freezing cryogenic chamber. This chamber is equipped with a special cooling unit and contains liquid nitrogen, which is used to rapidly cool down the cutting area to cryogenic temperatures. This rapidly brings the crystal's structure to its most stable state, allowing it to be cut easily and efficiently. Following this, the crystal is placed in the slice chamber where a precise laser beam is used to trim away excess material from the crystal. The laser is powerful enough to precisely trim away any unnecessary or undesired material while keeping the original shape of the crystal intact. This trimming process is known as "slicing." HERBERT ARNOLD 72/360 is a highly efficient and accurate machine that is used in a wide range of scientific applications, including material characterization, research, and product development. Its ability to precisely control the growth, shape, and trim of large single crystals makes it a valuable tool for researchers and scientists.
