Mechanical

Controls temperature in atlas heated platens.

Designed to form production parts that require both a controlled temperature and forming pressure. Provide heat-able/pressing surfaces compatible with the Specac Hydraulic Press. Controlled temperature to 300 celsius with water cooling, 15 ton load bearing capacity.

Designed for a wide variety of pressing applications, but they are specifically suited to make KBr (Potassium Bromide) discs. These discs are used for Infra-Red Spectroscopy, which can measure the vibrations of atoms and determine functional groups in molecules. Can be used to measure mechanical strength of a material under compression. 

Makes measuring thin films, coatings and small volumes of material easy. Among its applications you will find hardness and modulus measurements, high speed material property maps, ISO 14577 hardness testing, polymer tan delta, storage and loss modulus, and high Temperature Nanoindentation Testing. These will help to further understanding of a material’s behavior.
