DESCRIPTION
Design
All ECOPRESS models have electrohydraulic operation, which
do not require air. The sample is ejected fast and very
smoothly. All hydraulic components are housed in an ABS
cabinet, which is ergonomically designed.
ECOPRESS 52 is a cost effective automatic digital mounting
press with hydraulic pressure (requires no air). It is fully
automatic and suitable for all current hot mounting materials
used in materialography. User-friendly and modern-looking
control panel for mounting parameters provides high
productivity with last parameter settings being retained in the
memory. The control panel is specially designed to maximize
operator comfort and operation versatility. It is possible to set
mounting parameters in seconds.
ECOPRESS 52 is an easy to use mounting press. All button
controls, direct reading pressure gauge and valve are on the
front panel. Simply place the sample and the mounting media
in the cylinder and close the mold closure. Set the “Molding
Temperature”, “Heating Time”, “Cooling Time” and “Pressure”
then press the “Start” key. Pressure, heating and cooling are
automatically controlled and the total cycle time for a
complete cool mount takes 8 to 10 minutes. The actual
heating temperature and the heating time are digitally
displayed throughout the moulding cycle. The last parameter
settings are always retained in the memory. An audible signal
notifies the operator when the process is completed.
ECOPRESS 102/202 are high capacity, state of the art
automatic mounting presses having advanced software with
programmable colored HMI touch screen controls. Robust
bayonet closure allows for quick and safe operation. Wide
selection of mould assemblies from 25 to 50 mm in diameter
are available. Two mounts can be produced simultaneously
with the use of an intermediate ram. ECOPRESS 202, available
with dual cylinder can produce four mounts at a time offering
a perfect solution for labs with high specimen throughput.
ECOPRESS 102/202 have preprogrammed moulding
sequences built-in (factory set) from which you can choose
according to your own applications. You only need to place
the sample in the mould, select the program number for your
specific application and depress the “Start” button. That is it!
ECOPRESS does the rest for you! After pressing the start key,
the fully automatic program sequence is executed with the
preselected parameters. The pressure, heating and cooling
are automatically controlled and the total cycle time of a
complete cool mount takes 8 to 10 minutes. The parameters
can be changed and adjusted during the mounting process.
ECOPRESS 102/202 has additional capacity to store up to 99
operator-created programs. User-friendly program data and
instructions are displayed on a large touch screen LCD.
