Speedy throughput for cold isostatic press
Engineered Pressure Systems (EPSI) has developed its Dry-Bag cold isostatic press (CIP) production unit for producing large volumes of small parts.
The HIP system densifies parts to heal casting defects and voids, bond similar or dissimilar materials and to form net or near-net shapes from metal, ceramic, cermet and graphic powders.
EPSI's HIP is built with inside diameters of 50 to 1500mm and contains pressures from vacuum to 3000bar and temperatures as high as 4000F.
EPSI's HIP is available in a variety of sizes, from pilot to large production units, and can be provided in sizes to 1650mm (65in hot zone).
The HIP features interchangeable furnaces for various temperatures and atmospheres to meet the customer's production requirements, including oxygen resistant, molybdenum, and graphite heating elements.
EPSI's HIP also offers cascade control, fast cooling or uniform fast cooling to optimise heat/cooling rates, enhanced heat treatment possibilities and productivity.
