Preparing of powders of desired average particle size or specimens with adjusted thickness and smooth surface.
Laboratory presses
Contact: Andreas Egger
- Isostatic press chamber
- Uniaxiale press chamber
Cold-isostatic pressing gives samples with more uniform densities than uniaxial pressing because the pressurising fluid acts from all sides on the sample. This leads to a reduction of internal stress in the sample and reduces the risk of crack formation during sintering.
