Operating the machine Usually 20% wax is mixed in with the sample material. The mixing ratio here is 1 part wax and 4 parts sample material. Essentially, this improves the durability and surface of the pellets for the subsequent XRF analysis. We recommend the Retsch MM400 for producing a homogeneous mixture of sample material and the wax. Use a plastic beaker made of polystyrenefor mixing (Art. no. 22.041.0003) and 4 grinding balls made of polyamide (Art. no. 05.368.0042).
Operating the machine R Fig. 5: Adapter for evacuating the die tool NOTE Make sure that the slide is pushed in as far as it will go. If you use the adapter (R) for evacuating the die tool, it must protrude out of the back of the basic body. T O Fig. 6: Inserting the lower pressure piece The pressure pieces are ground and polished on one side. • Insert a pressure piece (O) with the ground and polished side (T) facing upwards.
Operating the machine N T Fig. 3: Filling in the sample • Fill the sample material into the die tool (approx. 15 grams). The pressure pieces are ground and polished on one side. • Insert the second pressure piece (N) with the ground and polished side (T) facing downwards. • Insert the plunger (M) into the die tool. Press the plunger (M) downwards so that the air cushion escapes. 5.5.3 Pressing the tablet D B PW H J t Fig.
Operating the machine Avoid, extending the cylinder to its maximum height while the pressure is building up. 5.5.4 • Turn the threaded spindle (D) upwards. • Put the die tool (PW) on the pressure cylinder (J). • Turn the threaded spindle downwards until it rests on the die tool. • Close the valve (H) by turning in a clockwise direction. • Build up the required pressure force (t) by moving the hand lever (B) forwards and backwards.
Operating the machine • Build up some pressure force by moving the hand lever (B) forwards and backwards until the pellet (PR) along with the pressure pieces fall out of the die tool. • • Alternatively, you can press the pellet out of the die tool by turning the threaded spindle (D). Open the shut-off valve (H) by turning in an anti-clockwise direction. PR Fig. 7: Turning the die tool to allow removal 5.5.5 • Turn the die tool backwards by 180°. • Remove the die tool. • Then clean the die tool.
Operating the machine F Fig. 8: Inserting the centring aid • Insert the centring aid (F) if required. CAUTION Risk of fingers being pinched. The plunger is loose! This means that there is a risk of the plunger (M) dropping downwards when the die tool is being inserted. • Hold the plunger (M) securely when inserting the die tool! M Fig. 9: The plunger drops down PW J Fig. 10: Inserting the die tool in a turned position 5.6.
Operating the machine S Fig. 11: After the pressing procedure • • Pull the slide (S) out of the die tool. PP Fig. 12: Inserting the pressing plate • Turn the spindle upwards to some degree. • Place the pressing plate (PP) onto the die tool. • Close the valve (H) by turning in a clockwise direction. Fig. 13: Alternative ejection of the pellets CAUTION Risk of fingers being pinched The (P) die tool’s basic body drops downwards as the pellets are being ejected.
Operating the machine • Make sure that you do not have any fingers between the basic body and the plunger! • Build up some pressure force by moving the hand lever (B) forwards and backwards until the pellet (PR) and the pressure pieces are ejected from the die tool. • Open the shut-off valve (H) by turning in an anti-clockwise direction. • Remove the pressing plate. Fig. 14: Removing the pellet • Remove the pellet.
Cleaning and service • Repeat these steps two or three times to remove all air bubbles out of the press. Then conduct a pressure test. (See the following Chapter on the pressure test) If you do not reach the required pressure of 25 tonnes during the pressure test, there must be air in the press still. In that case, proceed as follows: • Remove the die tool. ES G Fig. 16: • Pull the cylinder plate (G) upwards and off. • Use the supplied hex key to loosen the ventilation screw (ES).
