ICL's 2 Ton E-Z™Press features the same unibody construction and other features common to our E-Z™ Press line, but we have redesigned these presses to maximize the sensitivity of the press for exact reproducibility of applied force. By removing the pump and sealing the hydraulic cylinder, we have created a press that enables application of very small increments of force levels which can be reproduced with a high degree of precision from sample to sample and without pressure drops. Since the force levels are very low, very little effort is required to turn the lead screw. These presses are equipeed with clamps which allow them to be anchored to any bench top and easily moved to different locations within the lab and they can also be bolted to a lab bench using the fixtures provided with the press. When used with ICL's intrinsic dissolution analysis dies or ICL's Macro-Micro dies, the dies are automatically centered in the press. This press can also be used with ICL's 2mm, 4mm and 7mm die sets and die centering inserts are available for the smaller die sets.
Unit of Measure

N/A Many applications for low pressure presses such as intrinsic ingredients dissolution analysis require the application of highly reproducible force levels, and 12 ton hydraulic presses are inherently unsuited to these applications. By removing the pump and sealing the hydraulic cylinder, we have created a press which enables application of very small increments of force levels which can be reproduced with a high degree of precision from sample to sample and without pressure drops. The force is applied to the sealed cylinder by turning the lead screw assembly against the platen on which the die is seated, similar to the manner that a wine press operates. Since the force levels are very low, very little effort is required to turn the lead screw. These presses are equipped with clamps which allow them to be anchored to any bench top and easily moved to different locations within the lab and they can also be bolted to a lab bench using the fixtures provided with the press. When used with ICL's intrinsic dissolution analysis dies or ICL's Macro-Micro dies, the dies are automatically centered in the press. Note that special short profile Macro-Micro dies are required for this press. The 1 and 2 Ton E-Z™ Press can also be used with ICL's 2mm, 4mm and 7mm die sets and die centering inserts are available for the smaller die sets.
