Simple Operation for Consistent Results

Our special shape press molds are designed for ease of use with laboratory tablet presses. While commonly used in the catalytic industry or for forming porous samples, they are adaptable for a wide range of materials and shapes, including square or custom-designed porous samples. The outer diameter of the compression plate is typically 3-4 mm. KINTEK offers full customization of mold dimensions to meet your specific experimental or production requirements.

1. Place the mold in the center position of the tablet press.

2. Tighten the oil drain valve of the tablet press clockwise (if applicable to your press).

3. If applicable, tighten any fixing screws to secure the mold.

4. Operate the press (e.g., shake handle lever, use pump) to reach the required pressure.

5. Loosen the oil valve (or follow press procedure) to release pressure.

6. Carefully remove the mold and extract the pressed sample.

Underlying Principle: Precision Through Pressure

The effectiveness of our special shape press molds is rooted in Pascal's law, which dictates that pressure applied to an enclosed fluid (or transmitted through a solid piston in mechanical presses) is distributed to compact the powder material. In our applications, this principle is expertly utilized to mold powders into a diverse range of shapes—including round, square, hexagonal, and custom designs. By sealing the powder within the mold and applying uniform pressure, we ensure an even distribution of force. This meticulous process allows for the creation of complex and precisely dimensioned samples with high consistency and structural integrity.
