Electropolish Informational Disk

Electro Polish Systems, Inc has available an informational disk on electropolishing which will run on

Windows based systems with a CD-ROM drive.

As you can see from the disk index below, the information on the disk covers everything from A-Z on EP.

We feel this disk is not only a must for a training tool, but a necessity when trouble arises, as the disk contains

a comprehensive Troubleshooting guide.

The disk also preforms specific gravity adjustment calculations as well as how much solution must be

decanted to reduce metal content to the desired level.

The disk sells for $299.00 and can be purchased through your electropolish distributor or directly at carrie@ep-systems.com.
