General
The Model 8 vacuum press tool has already proven itself thousands of times in laboratory practice worldwide. It is particularly valued for its all-round qualities and durable, robust construction. It is indispensable for the preparation of poorly soluble substances for infrared spectroscopy and X-ray fluorescence analysis.
Powdery substances are pressed between optically polished die surfaces to form a stable, plane-parallel, homogeneous compact. The compact is easy to remove from the press tool since the die is divided into two parts. The internal press parts and die are manufactured from high-alloy hardened tool steel.
Advantages
- Easy removal of the compacts thanks to ta divided press die
- Die interior inserts available in steps of 1 mm
- Universally applicable for many substances
- Optical polishing of the die ram front surfaces for high optical compact quality
- Can be used with and without vacuum
- Simple and rapid production e.g. of trasparent discs made from potassium bromide and other salts
- Optionally expandable with exchangeable and micro inserts
Options / Accessories
Exchangeable inserts for Model 8
In order to enable flexible use of the vacuum press tool Model 8, exchangeable inserts in the respective size can be individually supplemented. A exchangeable insert consists of upper die with top plate, lower die, die interior components and plunger.
Micro-inserts for Model 8
For the production of rectangular compacts, the substance requirement is only 20%, at consistant optical quality.
Available in the sizes:
for type size I 5 x 1 mm
for type size II 13 x 2 mm
for type size III 25 x 5 mm
for type size IV 40 x 10 mm
General
The Model 10 press tool offers an optimised price-performance ratio due to its simple and uncomplicated construction. It offers a long service life with easy handling due to the stable and solid construction in conjunction with high-quality material quality.
The Model 10 press tool is versatile for many substances and the selection of different die shapes and sizes allows the production of round, square, rectangular or ring-shaped compacts among others.
The press die and ram are made of high-alloy, hardened tool steel. Powdery substances are pressed in the press die between the optically polished and finely ground die surfaces to form a stable, plane-parallel, homogeneous compact.
Advantages
General
The Model 10 Vacuum press tool is based on the simple, uncomplicated design of the Model 10 Standard press tool. Unlike the Model 8 Vacuum press, it is not equipped with a divisible press die and exchangeable inserts.
The ease of use as well as the stable and solid construction of the proven standard Model 10 press tool remain, as well as the optimised price-performance ratio.
The press die and ram are made of high-alloy, hardened tool steel. The die is equipped with vacuum equipment for the connection of a vacuum pump.
Powdery substances are pressed in the press die between the optically polished and finely ground die surfaces to form a stable, plane-parallel, homogeneous compact.

General
In addition to normal cold pressing, the Model 10 H Hot press tool enables the production of compacts at temperatures of up to 300 °C (optionally 400 °C). With vacuum equipment, temperatures of up to max. 180 °C can be reached.
Handles and a temperature sensor can be attatched to the die which is girdled by a ceramic-insulated strip heater. The strip heater is connected to the TRG 1 temperature control unit and constantly regulated.
The Model 10 hot press tool is versatile for many substances, and the selection of different die shapes and sizes allows the production of round, square or rectangular compacts among others.
The press die and ram are made of high-alloy, hardened tool steel. For better handling, the Model 10 H hot press tool is equipped with a second short die ram.
