Client Background
Tallinn University in Estonia is actively engaged in advanced materials research, particularly in the fields of powdered materials, ceramics, and solid-state chemistry. Their laboratory frequently performs powder compaction, material forming, and high-pressure experiment preparation, requiring stable and high-precision tooling.
Project Requirement
The university sought a Square Split Pressing Die Set (50×50 mm) compatible with their laboratory hydraulic press. Their key requirements included:
- Accurate 50×50 mm cavity size for consistent powder sample forming
- Split-type structure for easy sample demolding without damage
- High-strength, wear-resistant steel to withstand repeated pressing
- Smooth internal surface finish to ensure uniform density distribution
- Reliable sealing and alignment during high-pressure compaction
ZYLAB Solution
ZYLAB supplied a custom-fit 50×50 mm Square Split Pressing Die Set designed for the client’s specific hydraulic press system. Key features include:
- Precision Machining: Ensures dimensional accuracy and stable forming performance
- High-Strength Tool Steel: Provides excellent hardness, durability, and resistance to deformation
- Split Mold Design: Allows clean and easy removal of fragile powder compacts
- Polished Interior Surface: Improves powder flow and enhances density uniformity
- Secure Alignment System: Maintains excellent mold stability during high-pressure operation
Outcome
After implementing the ZYLAB pressing die set, Tallinn University achieved:
- Higher forming accuracy for research powder samples
- Improved quality and integrity of pressed pellets
- Reduced sample sticking and cracking during demolding
- More efficient workflow and reduced tool maintenance frequency
Conclusion
This project highlights ZYLAB’s ability to support university research laboratories with high-quality hydraulic press accessories and precision die sets. Our expertise in powder forming tools, custom die manufacturing, and lab-grade materials engineering ensures reliable performance for a wide range of research applications.
