PELCO easiCore
PELCO easiCore delivers gentle, precise rotary disc cutting for TEM and advanced materials workflows.
A gentle lapping-action cutter for clean discs, accurate holes, and controlled sample preparation.
The PELCO easiCore™ from Ted Pella is a precision rotary disc cutter designed to align and cut discs from a wide range of materials, or drill holes into them using brass core drills and abrasive slurry. Its gentle lapping action helps reduce distortion and chipping, which makes it especially useful where specimen integrity matters.
Applications
PELCO easiCore is commonly used to cut 3.0 mm discs for TEM, but it also supports a broader range of metric and Imperial core drill diameters for other workflows. That makes it relevant not only for transmission electron microscopy, but also for semiconductors and battery materials research. In practical terms, it serves labs that need controlled, repeatable disc preparation across different material types.
Key Features of PELCO easiCore
- Precision rotary disc cutter and drill for controlled sample preparation.
- Gentle lapping action that reduces distortion and chipping.
- Uses brass core drills and abrasive slurry for cutting and drilling.
- Counterbalanced weight system that controls downward force on the specimen.
- Suitable for a wide range of materials, from TEM samples to semiconductor-related substrates.
Why choose Milexia?
Milexia presents itself as a pan-European supplier focused on distribution, engineering, integration, servicing, and consulting, with a strong technical support model. For a product like the PELCO easiSlicer, that matters because customers need more than supply; they need guidance, application knowledge, and a partner that makes access to technology easier. That aligns with Milexia’s stated purpose and proposition.
