Installation schematic
  • To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the Pressing Die, please read these instructions carefully before installation and before using it for the first time
    • Must Read the manual especially the die installation schematic before the operation
    • The operator must wear protective goggles
    • Must have Hydraulic Pellet Press equipped with the Protection Cover, please click the pic-2 to order
    • You may order a vacuum pump separately for the dies ( click picture below right)
       Vacuum pump and high vacuum station

Cautions
  • WARNING:
  • DO NOT press flammable, corrosive, or explosive materials
  • The operator must wear a protection goggle
  • Attention:
  • Use ethanol to clean the pressing die before and after use every time
  • Use anti-rust oil after the operation and store it in a dry place to avoid rusting
  • NO pressing powder with particle size LESS THAN 30 micronshould be used. Small particles may slip into the gap between pushing rod and steel sleeve and cause damages to the sleeve during the compression
  • Ball mill or ground the powder to the size of32~75 microns powder before pressing.
  • Suggestions:
  • Please use a professional laboratory hydraulic press to ensure the evenness of the pressing interface 
  • For pressing sticky metal powders, such as Al, Mg, Zn, please use dry or alcohol-based lubricants to reduce friction during the compression. 

Application Note
You may consider using BNMR for easy mold release. Please click the picture below to order.

Steps to make sample pellet
  • Mixing and grinding chemical powder by agate mortar or Ball Mill
  • Calcine mixed the powder in a high temp furnace under suitable temperature
  • Crushing and Grinding calcined powder again by gate mortar or Ball Mill
  • Put calcined powder into the die
  • Pressing sample by a pressing machine under suitable pressure
  • Take out pellet sample from die
  • Sintering the pellet under suitable temperature in Oven
  • Then, a new material sample is formed!
