Turn off external water supply when press is not in operation. 1.3 Emergency Statement The TERAPRESS TP 7500S mounting press has been designed for mounting non-flammable metallographic specimens up to 2-inch diameter. Always follow proper operational guidelines and avoid contact with moving parts and hot assemblies. Seek appropriate medical care for burn injuries.
Fixed molds offer superior heat retention resulting in shorter cycle times and are best for labs that work with the same mold size the majority of the time. With the use of a spacer, the TERAPRESS TP 7500S can produce two mounts simultaneously. This can substantially increase the productivity of your metallographic laboratory.
