The LabManual series Laboratory Platen Presses with offer of model 50 and 300, are
able to handle pressing needs up to 50kN and 300kN respectively at 200°C or 300°C.
The press also allows the use of low closing forces. The results have been proven to
be accurate and consistent over time regardless of any setting the user has chosen.
Fontijne LabManual series Presses are widely used in many different sectors and
applications especially in the rubber, polymer and composite industries.
Thanks to its modest footprint, the LabManual press can easily get into and nicely
installed in any laboratory. The equipment features closed hydraulics operation
which prevents oil from leaking. The LabManual press has been designed with priority
in safety, while its ergonomic design and straightforward operation make life easier
for laboratory technicians. Fontijne LabManual press is the perfect choice for
applications that require accuracy and consistency, but where the number of samples
to be prepared is moderate, which allow manual operation.
Fontijne Presses offers several options for getting the best performance out of
the LabManual series.
Active water cooling (only LabManual 300)
Using the active water-cooling circuit, the LabManual 300’s press platens can be
cooled down quickly. This allows the user to save time to continue using the press
for upcoming tasks that need a lower temperature setpoint. The active water cooling
option includes an air blow system which uses compressed air to clean the cooling
channels of the press platens. This feature can prevent dirt from settling in the
channels.
Chromated backing platens
When using higher temperature settings, the sample material may adhere to the
platens. This can easily be prevented by using a set of a chromated backing platens.
