KBr (Potassium Bromide) Hydraulic Pellet Press, particularly the automatic kind, is primarily used in laboratories for creating solid samples for FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) spectroscopy. This process involves compressing a mixture of KBr powder and the sample substance into a small, translucent pellet. The pellet's transparency to infrared light allows researchers to analyze the sample's molecular structure. 1. Application in Spectroscopy:

• FTIR Analysis:FTIR spectroscopy is a technique that identifies the molecular structure of a substance by analyzing its infrared absorption spectrum. 
• Sample Preparation:KBr is ideal for this because it is transparent in the infrared region and can be easily compressed into a pellet with the sample. 

2. How it Works (General Principle):

• Hydraulic System:The press utilizes a hydraulic system to generate high pressure, often around 15 tons or more, to compact the KBr and sample. 
• Pascal's Law:The press works on Pascal's Law, where pressure applied to a fluid is transmitted equally throughout the fluid, allowing for amplification of force. 
• Pellet Formation:The pressure is applied to a die containing the KBr and sample, compressing them into a solid, uniform pellet. 

3. Advantages of using a Kbr Hydraulic Pellet Press:

• High-Quality Pellets:The press ensures high-quality, reproducible pellets for accurate FTIR analysis.
• Uniformity and Density:The pressure applied by the press creates pellets with uniform thickness and density, minimizing variations in the spectra.
• Ease of Use:Automatic presses often offer features like programmable settings and automated pressure control, simplifying the pellet-making process. 

4. Specific Applications:

• Research and Development:Used in various research fields, including chemistry, materials science, and pharmaceuticals. 
• Quality Control:Ensures the consistency and quality of materials in manufacturing and production. 
• Analysis of Hygroscopic Materials:Can be used to analyze moisture-sensitive materials by incorporating them into the KBr pellet. 
• Solid Sampling:Provides a method for analyzing solid samples that cannot be easily analyzed in solution. 

A complete Laboratory KBR hydraulic press producing a force about 30 tones use to make high quality 13 mm Pallet used for IR/FTIR/XRF Solid Sampling.

30-ton laboratory Hydraulic Pellet Press is a compact, elegant and robust machine, typically used by R&D & QC labs for various pelletizing applications for IR/XRF, etc.

The high pressure pumping unit supplies hydraulic fluid to the up-stroking ram of the cylinder. This causes the ram to rise steadily and positively in the upward direction. As a result, the pressure is applied to any object placed between the screw and piston top plate.

We offer a hydraulic press that produces a force of about 30 tons to make a high-quality 13mm pallet used for IR/FTIR/XRF solid sampling. Our range of hydraulic press can be customized as per customer requirements. These are appreciated for precision functioning and durability.
