The EM-Tec CV1 large centering vise SEM sample holder comprises a unique advantage. It keeps the sample always clamped in the centre of the holder. Both vise clamp jaws simultaneously move away or to the centre of the holder at the same time.
The EM-Tec CV1 large centering vise clamp includes two base plates on which the vise jaws can be re-positioned for optimum sample compatibility. The brass dual vise spindle is located underneath the baseplates with knurled handles at both ends. The spindle can be operated from either side. One side includes a removable spindle extension to provide better grip when opening the centering vise. Made from vacuum grade aluminium and brass to provide dry lubrication. The vise jaws are mounted on the base with brass mounting screws.
Features of the EM-Tec CV1 large centering vise SEM sample holder are:
- provides firm grip for large and heavy samples
- automatically holds the sample in the centre of the SEM stage
