YLJ-24TS 24-Ton Desktop Hydraulic Lab Press with Separable Manual Pump and Safety Shield for Ceramic Sample Preparation
The YLJ-24TS is designed for laboratory use where precise dry pressing of ceramic or composite materials is required, particularly in materials science and chemistry research. This desktop press can apply a maximum force of 24 metric tons, enabling the formation of dense, uniform samples suitable for subsequent analysis or testing.
Distinctively, the YLJ-24TS features a transparent safety cover that protects the operator during pressing, and a manually operated hydraulic pump that is physically separated from the pressing cylinder. This separation enhances safety and facilitates easier maintenance or replacement of the pump without disassembling the entire press.
Key Features
- Maximum pressing force of 24 metric tons with integrated pressure gauge for real-time monitoring
- Manual hydraulic pump separated from the pressing cylinder to improve operational safety and ease of repair
- Press opening dimensions of 165 mm width by 110 mm height accommodate various sample sizes
- Operating temperature range from 10 to 40°C suitable for standard laboratory environments
- Optional pressing dies available in multiple diameters to customize sample shape and size
- CE certified for compliance with safety standards
- Compact desktop design with a net weight of approximately 160 lb (72.6 kg)

Typical Applications
This press is ideal for preparing ceramic pellets or composite samples in research laboratories, especially for materials characterization, powder compaction studies, and sample preparation for spectroscopy or other analytical techniques. It is suitable for powders with particle sizes between 32 and 75 microns to avoid damage to the pressing die.
Configuration & Operating Notes
- Pressing dies of various diameters are available as optional accessories to tailor sample dimensions.
- An electric hydraulic pump with programmable pressure control can be ordered separately to replace the manual pump.
- The press can be adapted for use inside gloveboxes by connecting a hydraulic oil pipe with KF40 fittings.
- Operators must not exceed the maximum bottom cylinder travel distance of 20 mm to prevent mechanical damage.
- Protective goggles are mandatory during operation to ensure user safety.
- After each pressing cycle, clean the mold with ethanol to maintain performance and longevity.
