Case Study: Supplying a 50×50 mm Square Split Pressing Die Set to Tallinn University, Estonia

Table of Contents

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.
