The MTP-618 micro press must not exceed its rated 2-ton hydraulic limit to avoid structural damage. After each use, clean all powder residues from the carbide indenter using a cleanroom purge to preserve accuracy and prevent wear.
- Pressure Limit: Do not exceed the 2-ton maximum pressure to prevent yield damage.
- Post-Use Cleaning: Clean the carbide indenter face with a cleanroom purge after each operation.
- Enclosure Storage: Store the press inside the provided vibration-damped enclosure when not in use.
The MTP-618 is used for preparing micro-powder pellets for analytical spectroscopy. Safe operation requires careful pressure control and post-use cleaning.
Required Equipment: φ7mm 304 stainless steel mold with cemented carbide indenter, MTP-618 press base
- Prepare mold
Place the sample powder into the φ7mm mold cavity and assemble the indenter. - Insert into press
Insert the filled mold assembly into the press cavity aligned with the piston. - Apply pressure
Apply force gradually up to the required tonnage, not exceeding the 2-ton maximum. - Release and remove
Release the pressure, remove the mold, and extract the formed pellet. - Clean components
Clean the indenter and mold surfaces thoroughly with a cleanroom purge to remove residues.
What is the trade-off between the MTP-618's compact, portable design and its force capacity for micro-pelletizing applications?
The MTP-618's lightweight (4.8 kg) and compact (100×220×220 mm) frame enable handheld portability, but this design limits the maximum hydraulic pressure to 2 tons, which is sufficient for micro-powder samples in a φ7 mm mold. The cemented carbide indenter (HRC > 65) provides durability within this pressure range, but the system is not intended for larger molds or higher force applications.
Can the MTP-618 be used with standard infrared spectroscopic sample preparation dies, or does it require proprietary molds?
The MTP-618 is supplied with a dedicated φ7 mm 304 stainless steel mold and a cemented carbide indenter, specifically for micro-powder pelletizing in FTIR spectroscopy and similar applications. For different die diameters, the manufacturer offers customization through its laboratory support division; standard spectroscopic dies are not listed as directly compatible.
What are the critical maintenance and safety procedures required to preserve the MTP-618's cemented carbide indenter and ensure reliable operation?
After each use, the mirror faces of the cemented carbide indenter must be cleaned with specialized cleanroom purges to remove powder residues and maintain forming quality. The operator must never exceed the rated 2-ton maximum hydraulic pressure to avoid structural yield damage. The press should be stored in its custom vibration-damped enclosure.
The ATOMFAIR MTP-618 is a compact 0–2 ton micro powder tablet press featuring a φ7 mm mold and cemented carbide indenter (HRC > 65°), optimized for small-dose FTIR sample preparation. Its lightweight 4.8 kg frame and small footprint facilitate benchtop portability, but strict adherence to the 2-ton pressure limit and specialized post-use cleaning are required to maintain performance.
Positive
- Ultra-hard cemented carbide indenter: The indenter hardness exceeds HRC 65°, providing superior wear resistance and consistent forming quality for repetitive high-concentration powder pressing.
- Compact and lightweight portable design: With dimensions of 100 x 220 x 220 mm and a net weight of 4.8 kg, the press is easily portable and fits into standard laboratory benches without structural play.
Trade-offs
- Rated pressure limit must not be exceeded: The maximum hydraulic pressure is 2-Ton; exceeding this limit risks structural component yield damage and compromises the press integrity.
- After-use cleaning with specialized purges required: Powder residues must be thoroughly cleaned from the carbide indenter mirror faces using specialized cleanroom purges to maintain peak processing performance.
