Laboratory Hydraulic Hot Press Machine for Solid-State Battery Assembly and Advanced Materials Research

Introduction

The Model ZY09 Laboratory Hydraulic Hot Press Machine is a compact, benchtop thermal pressing system designed for high-precision material processing and sample preparation. Developed specifically for advanced scientific research, such as solid-state battery electrolyte fabrication, polymer laminates, and composite materials synthesis, the ZY09 combines hydraulic force generation with dual-zone heated platens. Its integrated water cooling loop facilitates rapid thermal cycling, while the programmable touchscreen interface allows for precise control over temperature and pressure profiles, making it a reliable instrument for academic, industrial, and pharmaceutical research laboratories.

Key Features and Advantages

• Independent Dual-Platen Heating: Embedded heating elements provide uniform heat distribution up to 300 °C. The upper and lower platens are controlled independently to accommodate asymmetrical thermal requirements.
• Rapid Thermal Management: An integrated water cooling loop, compatible with a circulating water chiller, enables rapid platen cooling to minimize thermal lag and accelerate sample throughput.
• Programmable Controls: The touchscreen interface supports multi-step programming of temperature and pressure segments, allowing researchers to automate complex dwell and ramping profiles.
• Automatic Pressure Stabilization: Equipped with an automated pressure-holding and replenishment system to compensate for material compaction or thermal contraction during long-term testing.
• Space-Efficient Benchtop Design: Delivers up to 30 Tons of force within a compact physical footprint (260 × 347 × 422 mm), ideal for laboratories with limited bench space.

Technical Specifications
