LABORATORY HOT PRESSES GROUP 1400

Thermal Technology’s Group 1400 laboratory hot presses are designed for high temperature, high pressure consolidation of powder materials. Operating at temperatures to 2250° C and uniaxial loads to 10 or 25 tons, this equipment is capable of densifying virtually all known ceramic materials. The vacuum furnaces are available with graphite, tungsten mesh, molybdenum mesh, or silicon carbide hot zones to meet specific process requirements. Atmospheres ranging from high vacuum to inert to reducing to oxidizing can be accommodated.

The basic models of hot pressing systems include the vacuum furnace, press load frame with rams, manual power supply with water-cooled flexible power leads, and manually controlled hydraulic force system.

With the versatility built into Thermal Technology’s Group 1400 hot presses, high purity, high strength technical ceramics can be fabricated. A variety of accessories can be installed at time of purchase or in the field at a later date. ( Source : thermaltechnology.com )
