Apex Quick Release XRF Pellet Dies

The Apex Quick Release XRF Pellet Die makes sample pellet preparation faster and more simple than ever before. There is no die assembly or die disassembly required. There is no need to evacuate the die, therefore there is no need for a vacuum pump. Simply introduce the powdered sample matrix into the die chamber then centrally locate the die on the bottom platen of the press; apply an appropriate load of pressure and as the precision polished top platen interfaces with the die to compress the sample matrix, a pellet is formed. As the load of pressure is released, the die’s auto-ejector allows the finished pellet to be exposed for removal.
