Programmable Mounting Press Used to Encapsulate Samples for Metallographic Preparation
The TechPress 3x™, Electro-Hydraulic Automatic Mounting Press is used to encapsulate samples for metallographic preparation.
The microprocessor-based system allows the operator to use either manual input or a preloaded database of 80 adjustable programs, which include parameters for mold size, single mount or duplexing, mounting resin, curing time and temperature, cooling time and pressure.
It features an intuitive interface using a 7″ color LCD touchscreen to control all functions, and is selectable between 10 languages. Mold assemblies can be changed from 25 mm through 2″, and include a duplexing spacer, allowing two mounts per cycle to be produced at one time.
Durable: Engineered and constructed using precision machined aluminum and stainless steel components to provide maximum longevity.
Easy to use: Easy to Use: User-friendly functions allow quick, easy, repeatable operation.
Safe: A safety sensor requires full closure of the bayonet cap before cycle start to ensure operator protection.
