Micro-Tec Tablet Press and Tablet Punch Die Kit


Introduction

Determining the chemical composition of a fine powder with SEM/EDS can be sometimes difficult. Pressing the fine powder into a tablet (if needed with a bonding compound) simplifies handling. By providing a flat surface, the overall analytical results can be improved. It also reduces possible contamination of the SEM with fine powder. If needed the tablet can be coated with a carbon film to provide conductivity.  Tablet presses are also used for XRF applications. There are two tablet presses with different designs available:

  •  Micro-Tec MTB manual tablet press for Ø3, 6, 8, 10 and 12mm tablets. Manual press with integrated tablet mould, punch and die. The tablet mould, punch and die are not separately available; only as a complete tablet press. Overall size is 185 x 120 x 210mm with a handle length of 195mm. Leverage of the handle is approx. 4-5 x. Weight is 4.6kg; made from carbon steel.
  • Micro-Tec TPD tablet punch die kit for Ø6, 9 and 12mm tablets. A hammer or separate press is needed to form the tablets. Consists of 4 pieces. Overall dimensions are Ø43 x 175mm. Weight is 0.9Kg; made from carbon steel. The tablet punch die kit is of a different design and is not interchangeable with the Micro-Tec MTB manual tablet press.
