Language:

The Qpress 50 is a modular hot mounting press for fast and simultaneously independent mounting of different materialographic specimens. Due to its modularity the Qpress 50 can be configured ideally to the specific customer’s needs; e.g. the specimens can differ in size and material.

The 7“ touch screen with intuitive software contains user account management, preinstalled recipes and user-defined maintenance tasks and more. The device combines fast mounting and high energy efficiency in a robust powder-coated steel case.

Product Advantages

  • 7” touch screen user interface with intuitive QATM user software
  • Sliding closure with comfortable one-hand operation
  • Dust Guard removes fine dust to improve safety
  • Fast mounting
  • High modularity for both simultaneous and independently controlled mounting
  • User account management with different access rights
  • Pre-installed preparation methods and consumables
  • Powder coated steel housing
Improved sliding closure

Improved sliding closure

One-hand sliding closure with integrated suction nozzle. When the mould is closed, excess granulate is pushed into a removable compartment (dirt trap). The sliding closure can be lifted off to clean the upper flask.

User safety

User safety

An integrated exhaust device (Dust Guard) protects the operator from inhaling expired fine dust during filling the moulds with mounting resin.

Easy to operate

Easy to operate

The multi-functional button indicates the selected mounting unit, the operation state of the pressing unit and facilitates the operation of the whole unit. The 7“ touch display with control software consists of pre-installed mounting methods, consumables and offers the storage of more than 200 user-defined mounting methods.

Qpress 50-2 - for medium quantity of mounts

Qpress 50-2 - for medium quantity of mounts

The Qpress 50-2 is the perfect choice for small and medium quantities of mounts. The basic unit includes one pressing unit and can be extended with one additional mounting unit at any time. The units are operated independently and simultaneously.

Qpress 50-4 - for large quantity of mounts

Qpress 50-4 - for large quantity of mounts

Up to 4 mounts can be done simultaneously and independently from each other. The basic unit includes one pressing unit and is extendable by 1, 2 or 3 additional mounting units. The diameter of the mount of each pressing unit is chosen individually by 25.2 mm, 30 mm, 1 ¼“ (~32 mm), 1 1/2“ (~38 mm), 40 mm and 50 mm - each diameter with or without chamfer.
