Wabash presses are specially configured to perform the compression molding of test plaque or bar specimens of Type 1-5 polyethylene. The procedure is in conformance with ASTM Method D 4703, Procedure C. The presses are equipped with heating/cooling platens and a programmable digital controller which has a heating/cooling loop for each platen and built-in program for the required 15°/minute +/-2°C cooling rate.
Clamp force 1500 lbs. to 30 tons
Single or dual daylight openings (6” each)
Heated and cooled platens (500 deg F. Maximum)
Platen size: 12" x 12"
Programmable controller with HMI and ramping TCU’s with remote setpoint capability
Cycle counter thru PLC
Automatic low pressure system
Automatic transition from closing to pressing speed
Closing speed 70 IPM (approx.)
Pressing speed 5 IPM
OSHA approved operating system
Pressure relief valve with analog pressure gauge
Integral hydraulic system with high-efficiency TEFC motor, reservoir & water-cooled heat exchanger
Clamp area guards with keyed interlock
Electrical supply: 460/3/60 (other voltages available)
