Page 1 1 A PROGRAMMABLE MOUNTING PRESS USED TO ENCAPSULATE SAMPLES FOR METALLOGRAPHIC PREPARATION Quality Products for Metallographic Sample Preparation & Analysis Product Brochure TechPress 3 MOUNTING PRESS ™ Page 2 2 The TechPress 3™ Electro-Hydraulic Automatic Mounting Press is used to encapsulate samples for metallographic preparation. The microprocessor-based system allows the operator to use either manual input or a preloaded database of 80 adjustable programs, which include parameters for mold size, single mount or duplexing, mounting resin, curing time and temperature, cooling time and pressure. It features an intuitive interface using a 7" color LCD touchscreen to control all functions, and is selectable between 10 languages. Mold assemblies may be easily changed from 25 mm through 2", and include a duplexing spacer, allowing two mounts per cycle to be produced at one time. Durable: Engineered and constructed using precision machined aluminum and stainless steel components to provide maximum longevity. Easy to Use: User-friendly functions allow quick, easy, repeatable operation. Safe: A safety sensor requires full closure of the bayonet cap before cycle start to ensure operator protection. Mold assemblies, recirculating coolant system and accessories are sold separately.

They may be easily changed from 25 mm through 2 inch, and include a duplexing spacer, allowing up to two mounts per cycle to be produced at one time. The new coiled heating and cooling lines within the cast housing and thin-walled cylinders allow quick and efficient cycling. Duplexing spacer provided with each mold assembly allows 2 mounts to be produced per cycle. Mold assemblies may be quickly and easily changed. Page 4 4 Password protection option maintains integrity of the program database to ensure repeatability. Pop-up keypad makes numerical entry easy. The 7" color LCD touchscreen is used to control all functions and is extremely easy to navigate, allowing greater efficiency among users. Intuitive Choose Input Mode when entering data manually, or use Programs Mode to access the pre-loaded database of 80 preset programs that can be changed or customized according to material. Intuitive, icon-based interface includes option for one-touch or momentary-touch ram extension and retraction. Compact Easy To Use Narrow 11.5" (292 mm) footprint saves counter space. New bayonet design - smooth, effortless opening after cycle Page 5 5 Programs Mode: Korean Selectable languages (English, Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Versatile 80 easily selectable, pre-loaded and adjustable programs for all mounting materials and mold sizes Prepare two mounts per cycle up to 2" / 50 mm. Convenient Safe Bayonet holding tray protects the die from damage between cycles. Safety sensor requires full closure of bayonet cap before cycle start.

(13 kg) Dims: 19" W x 19" D x 19" H (483 x 483 x 483 mm) Weight: 72 lb. (33 kg) Easy-to-Change Mold Assemblies Recirculating Coolant System Mount Storage Cabinet Lift Cover Remove Cover Unplug and Disconnect Hoses Remove and Replace Mold Assembly The recirculating coolant system connects seamlessly to the TechPress 3™ for standalone or “green” operation. The 3-gallon system circulates a unique coolant that effectively cools the mold assembly after the curing cycle. This not only saves water (~ 12 gallons per cycle), it eliminates problems associated with hard water deposits in the coolant system inside the press, which can cause clogging over time. The cabinet provides storage for polished mounts to prevent corrosion and dust contamination. The 10 cloth- lined drawers absorb moisture and hold mount dividers for easy organization. The locking door provides a sealed environment. Rechargeable desiccant canister is included. Dividers are sold separately.
