Multipak Press Data and Applications Sheet for Ceramic and other Oxide Applications
PTX-Pentronix, Inc. of Lincoln Park, Michigan, USA manufactures a complete line of high speed and high precision powder compacting presses, robotic parts loaders and other products for the powder compacting industry. This equipment is exported around the world and used to manufacture parts made from both ferrous and non-ferrous powders for the technical ceramic, tungsten carbide, hard metal and powder metal (P/M) industries. They are also used in a wide variety of automotive and other structural metal applications to replace wrought-machined products such as gears. The front cover of our brochure shows a number of these parts that are made by the Pentronix equipment. Please contact our company to discuss details of your application.
