Isostatic Press Production Unit
The Hot
Isostatic Press Production Unit, designed to uniformly apply
accurate pressure at elevated temperatures to all surfaces, is
ideal for castings, ceramics, plastics, automotive, and aerospace
industries. The system densifies parts to heal casting defects and
voids, bond similar or dissimilar materials, and to form net or
near-net shapes from metal, ceramic, cermet, and graphic powders.
It is built with inside diameters of 50 to 1,500 mm and contains
pressures from vacuum to 3,000 bar and temperatures as high as
4,000° F. The system is available in sizes from pilot to
production units and can be provided in sizes 1,650 mm. The unit
features interchangeable furnaces for various temperatures and
atmospheres to meet the customer's production requirements,
including oxygen resistant, molybdenum, and graphite heating
elements. It also offers cascade control, fast cooling, or uniform
fast cooling to optimize heat/cooling rates, enhanced heat
treatment possibilities and productivity.
