Advantages of isostatic presses

The isostatic pressing machine is suitable for users who have strict requirements on the uniformity/density of sample molding. The powder can be directly molded through the isostatic pressing cavity, or the already molded sample can be subjected to secondary pressure molding to make the density more uniform. It has been widely used in scientific research, teaching, testing, pharmaceutical, catalysis, chemical and other laboratory industries.

  • Using isostatic pressing billet high density and uniform, firing shrinkage is small, not easy to deformation.
  • Can molding conventional molding process difficult to prepare slender rod or tubular billet compression.
  • The product has high strength and good processability, greatly reducing the internal stress.
  • The mold is easy to make, long life and relatively low cost.
  • Capable of forming large size press billets, and each cylinder can press multiple press billets.
  • It is possible to remove the isostatic cavity to replace the cold pressing mold, with the characteristics of a multi-purpose machine.
  • Standard with pointer type pressure gauge, pressure, pressure double scale display, use pressure without conversion, simple and clear.
  • Optional digital display pressure gauge 40.00Mpa/0.01Mpa, high precision, suitable for the need to control the pressure of the laboratory use.

Applications

  • Powder Metallurgy (PM) forming process
  • Compacting green parts
  • Fully consolidating parts
  • Eliminating residual porosity from a sintered PM part

  • Fabricating complex ceramic parts at very high quality
  • Automating the isostatic pressing process
  • Testing the physical limits of ceramics, composites, construction materials, resins, and more
  • Pharmaceutical, laminating, rubber and plastic molding industries
  • R&D work, testing, short runs, limited production, cell manufacturing, and lean manufacturing

FAQ

What Is Isostatic Pressing?

Isostatic pressing is a powder metallurgy process that uses equal pressure in all directions to produce uniform density and microstructure in a powder compact.

What Are The Benefits Of Isostatic Pressing?

Isostatic pressing provides uniform strength and density, shape flexibility, a wide range of component sizes, and low tooling cost. It also allows for larger parts, enhances alloying possibilities, reduces lead times, and minimizes material and machining costs.

What Are The Types Of Isostatic Pressing?

There are two main types of isostatic pressing:

  • Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP): This type of isostatic pressing uses high temperature and high pressure to consolidate and strengthen the material. The material is heated in a sealed container and then subjected to equal pressure from all directions.
  • Cold Isostatic Pressing (CIP): In this type of isostatic pressing, the material is compacted at room temperature using hydraulic pressure. This method is commonly used to form ceramic and metal powders into complex shapes and structures.

What Type Of Isostatic Pressing Equipment Do You Have?

Our primary focus is the production of cold isostatic pressing equipment for both laboratory and industrial use.

What Are The Wet Bag Process And The Dry Bag Process?

The CIP molding process is divided into two methods: the wet bag process and the dry bag process.

Wet bag process:

In this method, the powder material is placed in a flexible mold bag and placed in a pressure vessel filled with high-pressure liquid. This process is ideal for producing multi-shaped products and is suitable for small to large quantities, including large-sized parts.

Dry bag process:

In the dry bag process, a flexible membrane is integrated into the pressure vessel and is used throughout the pressing process. This membrane separates the pressure fluid from the mold, creating a "dry bag." This method is more hygienic as the flexible mold does not get contaminated with wet powder and requires less cleaning of the vessel. It also features fast cycles, making it ideal for mass producing powder products in an automated process.

How Long Is Your Delivery Time? If I Want To Customize The Instrument, How Long Does It Take?

If the items are available in stock, the delivery time is 6-12 days. We also offer customization services for our customers. The lead time for customized products varies depending on the specifications and can take between 25-55 days.
