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.
