YLJ-CSP-15 is a 15 T max. manual hydraulic press with heatable uniaxial die (0.5" ID) up to 250 ºC max. It is designed for the cold sintering process (CSP) of ceramic, polymer, or ceramic-polymer composite materials for applications such as microwave dielectric materials, solid-state electrolyte, and semiconductor. The compact design of the press makes it well-suited for inside glove box operation with an inert gas environment.Reference:Application Note: Preparation of LAGP Sheets by Cold Sintering Process (CSP)Cold Sintering: A Paradigm Shift for Processing and Integration of CeramicsCold Sintering Process of Composites: Bridging the Processing Temperature Gap of Ceramic and Polymer Materials SPECIFICATIONS: Working Pressure 0~15 Metric Tons Gauge Pressure Value to Force Conversion Gauge Displayed Pressure Value (Bar) 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 Actual Force Applied on the Hydraulic Cylinder (Ton) 1.9 3.8 5.8 7.7 9.6 11.5 13.3 15.4 Actual Pressure Applied on 0.5" ID Die (MPa) 147 294 441 588 735 882 1029 1176 Notes: Gauge displays force in both PSI and Bar units for versatility (click picture on the left to enlarge) Please follow the Force Conversion table above to obtain the equivalent force applied on the Hydraulic Cylinder according to the pressure gauge Notice: Please close the Release Lever before transporting the press into the glovebox via the air-lock chamber. It will cause oil leakage if transported with the lever open. Displayed Pressure Value to Actual Applied Force Conversion: 26 bar = 1 Ton The actual force applied to the Hydraulic Cylinder (Ton) equal to the force applied on your working piece For calculating the actual pressure applied to your working piece, please follow the equation below: F=P_(Gauge Displayed Pressure Value (GDPV)) ×S_(Cross-section area of the inside piston) Since 1 Bar = 1.0197 kg/cm^2, Diameter of the piston is 7cm Assume Gauge Displayed Pressure Value is 100 F=101.97 ×π×(D/2)^2=3922.78 kg Force≈3.9 Ton force Therefore, From pressure gauge value to actual force is 26.31 Assume Diameter of your Die is 4 cm, and Gauge Displayed Pressure Value is also 100 Bar Then, the actual pressure on your working piece is: P_(actual on working piece )= F/S_(Cross-section area of the working piece ) P_(actual on working piece )= (3.9 Ton)/(12.56 cm^2 )=310 Bar In general: P_(actual on the working piece )=(P_( GDPV)/26.31) / (π*r_(Crosection area of the working piece)^2 ) Pressure Stability
