Pull
out

Place
the
cylinder
over
the
lower
ram and
screw
it
into
the
threaded
ring
until
the locking
pin
engages
with the
hole
in
the
cylinder.
Smear
a
layer
of
‘Heat
conductive
paste’
on
the
outer
surface
of
the
cylinder.
Lower
the
embedding
unit
onto
the
cylinder,
after which
the
press
is
ready
for
operation.
To
exchange
the
cylinder
lift
off
the embedding
unit
and
pull
out
the
locking
pin.
Unscrew
the
cylinder
and
demount
the
lower
ram.
Mount
the
new
cylinder
and ram
as described
above.
If
it
proves difficult
to
pull
the
unit
off
the
cylinder,
cool
the
cylinder
down
and
then heat
it
for
10-20
seconds.
This
causes
the
unit
to
expand,
and
it

Operation
2.1
Introduction
Prontopress-2
is
an
automatic hydraulic
mounting
press
for
metallographic
laboratories.
2.2 Embedding
Unit
The
press
is
supplied
with
an
embedding
unit
incorporating a heating/cooling
element.
Moulding
cylinders
and
rams
are
delivered
separately
according
to
requirement.
The
embedding
unit
will
accept
standard
moulding
cylinders
of
inside
diameters
between
25
and
40
mm
including
1”,
1¼”
and
1½”.
A
thermistor
ensures
accurate
control
of
the
temperature
of
the
heating/cooling
element.
The
pressure
in
the moulding
cylinder
is
established between
the
upper
and
lower
rams.
The
upper
ram
is
kept down
in
the
cylinder by
means
of
a
bayonet
closure
on
the
upper
rim
of
the
cylinder,
and
the
lower
end of
the
cylinder
is
held
in
place
on
the base
unit
by
a threaded
ring.
The
lower
ram
is
placed
on
the
piston
rod,
see
below.
2.3
Base
Unit
The
base
unit
consists
of
a motor
driven
hydraulic
pump,
a
high
pressure
cylinder
and
automatic
controls
for
compressive
force,
heating-
and
cooling
time
and
heating
temperature.
The
compressive
force
is
produced
by a
hydraulic
system
comprising a
pump,
a
high-pressure
cylinder
and
a pressure
regulator.
The pump
is
driven
by a
reversible
electric
motor.
When the
motor
runs
in
one
direction,
the
oil
is
pumped
from
the
reservoir
into
the
primary
side
of
the
high-pressure
cylinder,
and
the piston
rod
ascends. When the
motor
reverses,
oil is
pumped
into
the
secondary
side
of
the
high-pressure cylinder,
whereby
the piston
rod
descends.

that
the
bayonet
closure
can
engage
with
the
cylinder
and
then
turn
the
bayonet
closure
90°
clockwise
by turning
the handle
(green
point
on
the
bayonet
closure
should
be
in
position
opposite
the
corresponding
green
point
on
the

(see
section
6.2).
Press
(fig. 1.1),
after
which
the
entire
operation
will proceed
automatically.
When
the
cooling
has
stopped,
the
specimen
can
be
removed.
Set
the
three-way
switch
(fig.

briefly
to
“down”.
Release
the
bayonet
closure
by turning
it
90°back
using
the handle
(green
point
on
the bayonet
closure
should
be
in
position
opposite
the
corresponding
green
point
on
the
heating/cooling
unit).
Set
the
three-way
switch
to
“up”
for
ejection of
bayonet

from
the
cylinder.
When
the
specimen
has
been
ejected,
set
the
three-way
switch
to
“neutral”,
and
the
press
is
ready
for
the
next
mounting.

Mounting
Data
The
data
stated below
should
be
considered as a guide
for
obtaining
a
perfect,
completely
cooled
mount.
Depending
on
the
individual
demands
to
the mount, the
specimen
size
and
the
type
and
quantity
of
resin,
the
listed
times
can
be
optimized. See
also

chapter
“Hints”.

Hints
Resin
1
and
3
Resin
3
is
not
electrically
conductive,
can
be
used
in
conjunction
with
Resin
1
to
provide
an
insulating surface
with
Resin
1
as
the
conductive
backing.
Resin
4,
5
and
6
When
using
the rather expensive resins
4
and
5,
these
can
be used
in
the
bottom
of
the
cylinder,
which
is
then filled
up
with the
less
expensive
bakelite
resin.
Pre-mount
Pre-mount
is
best
suited
for
routine
mounting
of
large
numbers of
specimens
where,
due to
their
compact
form
and
the addition
of
an
intermediate
ram,
two
mounts can
be
produced
in
one
process
(max.
040
mm).
Because of
its
compact
form,
Pre-mount already
exerts
a
certain
pressure
on
the
specimen
from
the
start
of
the
mounting
process,
making
it
suitable
for
use only
with
pressure-resistant
specimens.
Mould
Release
Wax
Distance
to
cylinder
wall
Small
specimens
Clean
specimens
Must
always
be
applied
to
the
mounting
rams
in
a
thin
layer
before
the
mounting
process
begins. This
prevents
the adhesive
qualities
of
the resins
from making
it
difficult
to remove
the
mounts
afterwards.
The
distance
between
the
specimen
and
the
cylinder
wall
must
be
minimum
3
mm (1/8”)
to
avoid cracks
in
the
resin.
This
goes
especially
for
specimens
with
sharp
edges.
Small
thin
specimens
can
be
stabilized by
means
of
Struers
mounting
clips,
available
in
metal
and
in
plastic
(see
the
chapter “Consumables”).
The
specimens
must
be
clean,
dry
and
free
from
grease.
If
necessary
clean
with
alcohol
or
another
suitable
degreasing
fluid.
Pressure
Preheating
The
recommended
maximum
pressures
vary
from
15
kN for
025
mm
to
35
kN for
o40
mm
specimens.
The pressure
must
never
exceed
55
kN
and
be
less
than
15
kN.
For
porous
and/or
pressure
sensitive
specimens,
such
as
minerals,
electronic
parts
etc.,
it
is
an
advantage
to
soften the
resin
by
heating,
before
applying pressure.
This
is
mostly
advantageous
when
using
thermoplastic
resins
and
especially
Resin
3.

Heating
time
The
heating
time
can
be

depending
on
the
specimen
size
and
the
quantity
of
resin
used.
Cooling
time
A
cooling
time
of
4-5
mm
ms
mostly
suitable. Note that
when
Resin
3
is
used,
the
supply
of
cooling
water
should
be
reduced
to
0.1
1/mm. It
is
also
sometimes necessary
to
increase
the
cooling time
for
Resin
3.
Temperature
Porous

Temperature

The mentioned
heating/cooling
times
are
based
on
the
thermostat
being
set
on
maximum.
If
the
temperature
is
reduced the
recommended
heating time
should
be
longer.
The
temperature
used
during
the
mounting
process
can
be
reduced
to
a
minimum
of
110°C
for
all
resins.
Thermoplastic
resins
(especially
Resin 3)
penetrate
well
into
porous
specimens.
The
best
results
are
obtained
by
preheating
the
resin
(see
“Preheatmng”).
NB
For
very
porous
specimens,
hot
compression mounting
should
be
avoided.
Cold
mounting
should
be used
instead (Epof
ix
with vacuum
impregnation).
Thermoplastic
resins
(especially
Resin
3)
should
be
used.
The
best
results
are
obtained
by
preheating
the
resin
(see
“Preheating”).
NB
For
very

sensitive
specimens,
hot
compression
mounting
should
be
avoided.
Cold

should

instead.
The
temperature
used
during

NB
For

Maintenance
(Maintenance)
Apart
from
cleaning
and
exchange
of
oil
the base
unit
requires
no
regular
maintenance.
However, moving
parts
may
be
greased.
Fuse
(fig.
2.11) For
replacement
of
the
fuse,
unscrew
the
black
plastic button
and remove
the
fuse.
Replace
with
fuse
of
the
right
amperage.
4.1
Cleaning
Clean with
a
dry
cloth
(do
not
use
compressed
air).
Moulding
cylinders
and
rams
must
be
kept
clean.
The
cylinder
may
be
cleaned
by passing
the
lower
ram
up
through
the
cylinder
without
producing
a
mount.
For
a
more
thorough
cleaning
remove
the
cylinder. Cylinder
and
rams
are
cleaned
in
alcohol
or
acetone
or
possibly
in
an
ultrasonic
cleaner.
Rams
may
be
polished
with
6
pm
or
3
pm
diamond
on
a
soft
polishing
cloth
(DP-Nap).
4.2
Exchanging
the
Oil
The
hydraulic
oil
must
be
exchanged
at
intervals.
The
first
oil
exchange
must
take place
after
1000
hours of operation
and,
after
that,
at
every
3000
hours
of
operation,
or at
intervals
of
max. 10
years.
The
press
is
drained
of
oil
through
the drain
plug
in
the
bottom
of
the press.
When
the
press
has been
drained
of
oil,
the
embedding
unit
(fig.
1.11)
is
removed, and
the
press
is
turned
upside
down. Now
3
I
of
oil
are
filled
through
the
drain
hole
and
the
plug
is
mounted.
Recommended
type

oil
Mobil
DTE

or
similar

oil
having
a
viscosity
of
