Product Overview
The 15-ton manual press sets a new standard for benchtop thermal compression in research and development environments. Its integrated hydraulic system and monolithic cast construction eliminate external fluid lines, providing exceptional reliability and zero-leak operation even under sustained full load. This design makes the unit ideally suited for glovebox integration where contamination must be avoided.
Engineered with dual-zone independent heating and advanced thermal insulation, the press delivers uniform temperature distribution across large 300×300 mm platens. Researchers can precisely control pressing force and temperature cycles for reproducible sample preparation in fields such as battery technology, polymer science, and advanced ceramics.
Whether compacting powders into dense pellets or curing multi-layer laminates, this system’s robust construction and configurable options ensure consistent performance over thousands of cycles. Backed by factory calibration and CE certification, it offers the precision and peace of mind demanded by leading laboratories worldwide.
Key Features
- Monolithic Hydraulic Integration: The press features a one-piece cast body that houses both the oil reservoir and hydraulic cylinder. This eliminates external tubing and drastically reduces the risk of seal failure or fluid leakage under prolonged high pressures.
- Advanced Thermal Barrier System: High-density composite insulation plates are installed between the heated platens and the hydraulic unit. This minimizes heat transfer, protects hydraulic seals, and stabilizes the thermal profile across the entire working surface.
- Dual-Zone Precision Heating: Each platen is independently controlled by a micro-PID system, ensuring precise temperature uniformity and repeatability. Standard control offers dual digital displays, while optional programmable profiles enable multi-step ramps and dwells.
- Embedded Water Cooling: Both platens incorporate internal water channels for rapid cooling. When paired with an external chiller, this feature significantly shortens duty cycles and prevents sample thermal deformation during demolding.
- Smooth Manual Force Application: A high-precision manual hydraulic system delivers 0–15 tons of force with tactile control. Operators can finely adjust pressure for delicate materials or achieve full tonnage for demanding consolidations.
- Glovebox-Ready Architecture: The compact, integrated design facilitates placement in inert atmosphere enclosures. No external fluid connections or bulky components compromise the controlled environment.
- Extensive Customization: Choose from multiple heating powers, temperature limits, daylight openings, control systems, and power grid options to match exact experimental requirements.
