In wet bag cold isostatic pressing (CIP), the material is preformed then sealed in a flexible bag or mold. The bag is placed within a hydraulic fluid (e.g. oil or water) in a pressure vessel. Pressure is applied to the fluid, usually between 10,000 and 60,000 psi which is evenly distributed across the material.

common use for our customers is when they want to press something long and thin. Such as a 5 mm diameter ceramic rod which is 100 mm long and would after be sintered. Using a  standard uniaxial die i) would not give good compaction along the length as it is so long, ii) would be very unstable after pressing and the iii) die sleeve might have to be 200 mm long. When adding the plunger on top, it would be unreasonably big for a standard press. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf doing this with CIP, the powder could be filled into low cost latex tube of appropriate diameter, a simple knot or clip in each end, then placed in the hydraulic fluid, the chamber is closed and the pressure applied to the fluid with the pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pressure is held for a few minutes, then released. The chamber is then opened, the sample bag removed. Wipe the oil away from the outside of the bag then it can be opened (if reusable mold) or cut if low cost sacrificial mold like a balloon or latex tube and the sample is removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sample now has been compacted from each side giving it more stability and uniformity and is ready for the next stages of processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is less dimensional control with CIP than with uniaxial pressing. For instance using the example above, if you need exactly 5 mm diameter, then there would be some trial, error and calculations in your mold and filling procedure beforehand to get there. But once you are through that then it is a very repeatable process that offers some distinct advantages. Including being able to press very long aspect ratio pellets. Spark plugs are an example of a common item which are cold isostatically pressed on an industrial scale. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCold Isostatic Pressing Wetbags and Molds\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold Isostatic Pressing is also termed \"wetbag\" pressing, because the outside of the bag gets wetted by the pressing fluid. You will need an appropriate bag to press your sample but you have a lot of pretty easy and low cost options. Even thin flexible materials such as latex and rubber will stand up against very high pressures as they are not particularly highly stained (elongated) under this high pressure when pressed against something which does not elongate as much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can use anything from a latex balloon or lab glove to a custom latex mold for your pressing, what you need will depend on whether you are premoulding your shape into a compact before or whether you need the mold to provide the shape to your object.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe do not supply wetbags but we can make flexible molds if you are pressing directly from loose powder.

In wet bag cold isostatic pressing (CIP), the material is preformed then sealed in a flexible bag or mold. The bag is placed within a hydraulic fluid (e.g. oil or water) in a pressure vessel.

common use for our customers is when they want to press something long and thin. Such as a 5 mm diameter ceramic rod which is 100 mm long and would after be sintered. Using a  standard uniaxial die i) would not give good compaction along the length as it is so long, ii) would be very unstable after pressing and the iii) die sleeve might have to be 200 mm long. When adding the plunger on top, it would be unreasonably big for a standard press. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf doing this with CIP, the powder could be filled into low cost latex tube of appropriate diameter, a simple knot or clip in each end, then place in the hydraulic fluid, the chamber is closed and the pressure applied to the fluid with the pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pressure is held for a few minutes, then released. the chamber is then opened, the sample bag removed. Wipe the oil away from the outside of the bag then it can be opened (if reusable mold) or cut if low cost sacrificial mold like a balloon or latex tube and the sample is removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sample now has been compacted from each side giving is more stability and uniformity and is ready for the next stages of processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is less dimensional control with CIP than with uniaxial pressing. For instance using the example above, if you need exactly 5 mm diameter, then there would be some trial, error and calculations in your mold and filling procedure beforehand to get there. But once you are through that then it is a very repeatable process that offers some distinct advantages. Including being able to press very long aspect ratio pellets. Spark plugs are an example of a common item which are cold isostatically pressed on a industrial scale. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCold Isostatic Pressing Wetbags and Molds\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold Isostatic Pressing is also termed \"wetbag\" pressing, because the outside of the bag gets wetted by the pressing fluid. You will need a appropriate bag to press your sample but you have a lot of pretty easy and low cost options. Even thin flexible materials such as latex and rubber will stand up against very high pressures as they are not particularly highly stained (elongated) under this high pressure when pressed against something which does not elongate as much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/i2BuOedoaQM?si=jwgL-waJPd-2TKv_\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can use anything from a latex balloon or lab glove to a custom latex mold for your pressing, what you need will depend on whether you are premoulding your shape into a compact before or whether you need the mold to provide the shape to your object. \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIf you need something into a specific shape then you will need a pre-made mold with the required shape - we also make these and you can check out our \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pelletpressdiesets.com\/pages\/flexible-molds-for-cold-isostatic-pressing\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.pelletpressdiesets.com\/pages\/flexible-molds-for-cold-isostatic-pressing\"\u003eCIP Molds here\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContact us at info@pelletpressdiesets.com if you have any questions about your mold options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eStandard\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"1nk3u-3-0\"\u003e operating\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"1nk3u-4-0\"\u003e procedure\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"1nk3u-5-0\"\u003e for\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"1nk3u-6-0\"\u003e the benchtop cold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"1nk3u-11-0\"\u003e is\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"1nk3u-12-0\"\u003eost\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"1nk3u-13-0\"\u003eatic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"1nk3u-14-0\"\u003e press\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBefore you start it is handy to have some paper towels available to wipe up any drops of oil.

In wet bag cold isostatic pressing (CIP), the material is preformed then sealed in a flexible bag or mold. The bag is placed within a hydraulic fluid (e.g. oil or water) in a pressure vessel. Pressure is applied to the fluid, usually between 10,000 and 60,000 psi which is evenly distributed across the material. This method helps to reduce distortion, improve accuracy and reduce the risk of air entrapment and voids. It is widely used in the production of components for medical, aerospace and automotive applications.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat are the differences between Uniaxial pressing and Cold Isostatic Pressing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth uniaxial pressing and CIP are methods for compacting powder samples.

common use for our customers is when they want to press something long and thin. Such as a 5 mm diameter ceramic rod which is 100 mm long and would after be sintered. Using a  standard uniaxial die i) would not give good compaction along the length as it is so long, ii) would be very unstable after pressing and the iii) die sleeve might have to be 200 mm long. When adding the plunger on top, it would be unreasonably big for a standard press. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf doing this with CIP, the powder could be filled into low cost latex tube of appropriate diameter, a simple knot or clip in each end, then place in the hydraulic fluid, the chamber is closed and the pressure applied to the fluid with the pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pressure is held for a few minutes, then released. the chamber is then opened, the sample bag removed. Wipe the oil away from the outside of the bag then it can be opened (if reusable mold) or cut if low cost sacrificial mold like a balloon or latex tube and the sample is removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sample now has been compacted from each side giving is more stability and uniformity and is ready for the next stages of processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is less dimensional control with CIP than with uniaxial pressing. For instance using the example above, if you need exactly 5 mm diameter, then there would be some trial, error and calculations in your mold and filling procedure beforehand to get there. But once you are through that then it is a very repeatable process that offers some distinct advantages. Including being able to press very long aspect ratio pellets. Spark plugs are an example of a common item which are cold isostatically pressed on a industrial scale. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCold Isostatic Pressing Wetbags and Molds\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold Isostatic Pressing is also termed \"wetbag\" pressing, because the outside of the bag gets wetted by the pressing fluid. You will need a appropriate bag to press your sample but you have a lot of pretty easy and low cost options. Even thin flexible materials such as latex and rubber will stand up against very high pressures as they are not particularly highly stained (elongated) under this high pressure when pressed against something which does not elongate as much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/i2BuOedoaQM?si=jwgL-waJPd-2TKv_\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can use anything from a latex balloon or lab glove to a custom latex mold for your pressing, what you need will depend on whether you are premoulding your shape into a compact before or whether you need the mold to provide the shape to your object.
