Hot Mounting Press Qpress 50

The Qpress 50 is a modular hot mounting press for fast and simultaneously independent mounting of different materialographic specimens. Due to its modularity the Qpress 50 can be configured ideally to the specific customer’s needs; e.g. the specimens can differ in size and material.

The 7“ touch screen with intuitive software contains user account management, preinstalled recipes and user-defined maintenance tasks and more. The device combines fast mounting and high energy efficiency in a robust powder-coated steel case.
