Product Details

This apparatus is designed for the compaction of powdered materials into solid samples, specifically for preparing uniform pellets used in analytical techniques like X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and other laboratory testing. It serves to create high-density, consistent specimens from various powders, which is a critical step in material analysis and quality control. The press features a high-strength steel body and a manual hydraulic jack system capable of generating up to 15 tons of force. It includes interchangeable steel dies with bores of 5mm and 8mm, paired with high-precision, hardened tool steel plungers. A pressure gauge allows for monitoring of the hydraulic pressure during the compaction process, and a built-in pressure release valve ensures operational safety. Its primary applications are in materials science, chemistry, and industrial laboratories for processing samples in fields such as electronics and manufacturing. The key benefit is its ability to apply high, controlled pressure in a simple manual operation, enabling the production of reliable and repeatable samples essential for accurate compositional and structural analysis.
