SimpliMet 4000 Mounting Press Introduction

The SimpliMet 4000 is the fastest mounting press and designed for 24/7 use.

Introducing the SimpliMet 4000 Mounting Press

Introducing the SimpliMet 4000 Mounting Press for an efficient, reliable process.

SimpliMet 4000 Mounting Press Demo

This video demonstrates how to use the SimpliMet 4000 mounting press to mount a steel sample in a 1.25-inch mount using EpoMet.

SimpliMet 4000 Duplex Function

This video provides an overview of the duplex function on the SimpliMet 4000 mounting press. It shows how to load two samples into the mounting chamber and calculate how much mounting media is needed by using the Mounting Media Calculator.

Benefits

High reliability in 24/7 use envirionments

The SimpliMet 4000, was tested in extreme conditions, and simulated the duty cycle of the busiestlabs in the world, providing high reliability in continuous use environments.

Optimize Productivity in Your Space

The SimpliMet 4000 packs fast mounting cycles into limited bench space, optimizing productivity. By replacing older, slower, larger presses; capacity can be doubled for the same amount of space.
Fast duplex mounting allows two mounts to be made during the same cycle with negligible increase in cycle time.

Ease of use saves time and protects sample quality

Simple user interface eliminates errors and protects the quality of your sample prep. Everything you need is right on the front panel.
Use your press out of the box without the wait. New employees can be trained quickly and efficiently.
