Cold Isostatic Pressing (CIP) is a method of
compacting powders into green bodies and near-net shaped in a pressure vessel.
The powder, which can be metallic,
ceramic or graphite, is sealed in a flexible mold shaped like the end product.
High pressure is used up to 600 MPa (6,000 bar/87,000 psi) having water as
pressure
medium. A high and uniform density is achieved, resulting in easier handling,
easier machining and even predictable shrinking during sintering.
CIP applications include compaction of powders into refractory nozzles, metal filters, graphite parts, ceramics, cemented carbides, etc.

Avure Technologies Isostatic presses are widely
recognized as the leading brand in the world. This is due to the Company's
technological superiority in a number of
areas, particularly in the institutional knowledge related to engineering,
design, manufacturing and the application of high pressure. The first QUINTUS
® isostatic
press was delivered in 1965.
AVURE offers a full line of standard models of
Cold Isostatic Presses or models can also be custom configured to meet your
needs. These presses are available with
diameters of up to 2,5 m (8.2 feet) for pressures up to 600 MPa (6,000
bar/87,000 psi). Please contact Chief Up with your requirements.
