With Safety Shields. The Model 30 and Model 40 features the same patented lightweight and ergonomic unibody design as the 12 ton and 20 ton models. To make what would normally be huge presses as light and elegant as our lower capacity designs, we found the finest quality low profile hydraulic cylinders available. We oversized the hydraulic cylinders to make them as easy as possible to pump to full load. Both presses have an award winning 2 speed hand pump that reduces the number of required strokes by up to 78% and also reduces jacking effort. With ICL's patented unibody construction design, we were able to keep the weight of both units to under 155 pounds. These high tonnage E-Z presses are ideal for lab applications, such as briquetting samples for XRF spectroscopy, because of their ease of use, small footprint, light weight construction and built in safety features.

N/A The presses also allow the user to regulate the rate of pressure drop (bleed off) using a fine one way needle valve that can be preset at the desired decompression rate. Once the desired bleed off rate is determined, the valve can be left in that position as it will not interfere with pumping the press up to the desired force. Controlled pressure bleed off is useful for making XRF briquettes. This feature is normally found only on expensive fully automated presses.

Ports in the walls of the press frame allow access for vacuum lines and electrical cords to the area between the platens, which enables use of the press with evacuable dies and heated platens. Both presses can be used for making thin films with ICL’s Constant Thickness Film Maker and Heated Platens. Automated versions are available that are driven by pneumatic motors powered by your lab’s compressed air supply (see Air-EZ™).

Like all E-Z Presses™, the 30 and 40 ton models feature built in polycarbonate safety shields with solid brass hardware. There are die centering depressions in the round bottom platens. Each press comes with a standard stainless steel filling disc to flatten the platen. The bottom platen of each press has a 4" diameter depression and optional donut shaped inserts are available to automatically center 13mm, 20mm, 32mm, 35mm and 40mm die sets.

    Handling charges are added to most hydraulic press prices for crating, packing and export documentation as applicable. No daylight adjustment for optional heated platens. Height of the E-Z press™ and Air-EZ™ presses is measured inclusive of the lead screw and hand wheel assembly adjusted to the minimum daylight opening.
