Laboratory Presses, Dies & Rollers

The force behind groundbreaking research
This is some text inside of a div block.

Laboratory presses, cold isostatic presses and rollers are essential tools for scientists and engineers who are working to develop new materials, processes, and products.

Applications include:

  • Sample preparation: For analysis by a variety of techniques, such as microscopy, spectroscopy, and chromatography
  • Materials testing: Such as strength, hardness, and elasticity
  • Battery electrode fabrication: To calender electrode films to achieve a desired thickness and uniformity and to compact electrode slurries into thin films
  • Electronic device fabrication: Embedding electronic components into substrates or to laminate materials
  • Material processing: Changing shape, size, or density

PI-KEM supplies MTI's laboratory presses and rollers to researchers and engineers throughout Europe.
