Panel Press

The temperature-controlled plate press is primarily used for the development of composite materials. An important field of application of the press is the production of test laminates, which are required to test bond strengths or to develop adhesives for press laminates and to test their effectiveness.
By selecting or designing suitable pressing tools, moldings, foils or composite parts can be produced with plastics, elastomers or composite plastics. The materials to be pressed can be present as granulates, powders, foils or sheet material. Various insert materials can be used for pressed composites, such as metal, glass, fiber-reinforced plastics or textiles.
