For more than 85 years Carver hydraulic presses have
been the standard for laboratories around the world. Carver
Model C presses alone are in use in more laboratories than
any other press. The current Carver line has been expanded
and improved with more sizes, options, features, and quality
performance than any other line presses. Standard choices
now include two-column and four-column, bench top and floor
standing, and manual and automatic presses with clamping
capacities from 12 to 100 tons. Automatic "Auto Series"
presses include user-friendly microprocessor based controls
and integral safety enclosures. Accessories include new
self-contained, electrically operated AutoPak hydraulic
power unit for retrofit to existing manual Carver presses.
Applications
- Materials research: ceramics, composites,
construction materials, cosmetics, drugs,
pharmaceuticals, powder metals, printed circuit boards,
rubber, silicone and other elastomers, soil,
thermoplastic resins and thermosets.
- Quality and performance testing of physical
properties: compression strength, flexural strength,
shear strength, flow and color dispersion.
- Lab testing: ASTM test plaque or bar molds for
polyethylene and polypropylene.
- Laminating: credit cards, ID cards, plaques and
printed circuit boards
- Other applications: composite molding, compression
molding, crushing, encapsulation, extrusion, forming,
insert pressing, producing KBr pellets for infrared
spectroscopy, metal forming (dimpling), insert molding,
oil extraction, pelletizing, specimen preparation,
splice molding, splitting chilled oils, transfer
molding, and vulcanizing rubber stamps.

All Electric
E-Series Compression Press |
For Compression Molding
of
Rubber/Elastomers, Gum
Silicones, Various TPR's,
Thermosets and
Thermoplastics
Carver, Inc. has
introduced it's first
all electric compression
press designed for
around-the-clock
performance in a lab,
clean room or on the
production floor. The
E-Series is clean, quiet
to operate and offers
greater precision and
reliability over
hydraulically driven
presses. Energy savings
is another key benefit,
especially when
considering longer dwell
time applications.
The E-Series is ideal
for compression molding
of rubber/elastomers,
gum silicones, various
TPR's, thermosets and
thermoplastics, as well
as various bonding and
laminating applications.
The unique all electric
power-drive system
provides accurate
control of clamp force
from 1,000 lbs. to
60,000 lbs.
Features:
- Load cell for
force feedback
- PLC controls
press functions
- Segmented
program with recipe
storage
- Touch-screen
operator interface
- Platens
available up to
24"x24"
- Clamp area
guards
- Patented (US
6990896B2)
