Laboratory Hydraulic Presses & Pellet Dies
Specac shop offers manual and automatic Hydraulic presses that are versatile equipment for laboratory sample preparation. With a pellet die, they can be used to press solid and semi-solid pellets (also called tableting press and briquetting press) for various spectroscopic and physical testing methods including infrared (IR) spectroscopy, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy, dielectric spectroscopy, tablet dissolution tests, and more. These hydraulic press machines are also able to compact powdered mineral, biological ceramic and metallic materials as a stage prior to sintering in the research and development of novel materials. With heated platens, a hydraulic press can also be used for preparation of thin polymeric films for either spectroscopic or material research purposes.
