Frequently Asked Questions
What materials can the Pneumatic Cutting Press handle?
The press is highly versatile and designed to cut a wide range of materials, including paper, carton board, textiles, rubber, plastics, polyurethane, and foils. It is ideal for preparing consistent specimens for laboratory testing.
What is the difference between the 3-tonne and 10-tonne models?
The 3-tonne model is typically used for thinner or softer materials like paper and textiles and operates via a pneumatic air supply (80-100 psi). The 10-tonne model provides significantly higher force for denser or thicker materials and utilizes a hydraulic power unit.
Does the press meet safety standards for laboratory environments?
Yes. Safety is a priority. All models feature a "Two-Hand Control Valve" operation that conforms to international safety standards EN574 and AS4024. This ensures the operator's hands are clear of the cutting area during the cycle.
Can I use my existing cutting dies with this machine?
The press is designed to be compatible with a large range of dies. Dies can be fixed to the moving top plate or sit directly on the sample. IDM also offers over 50 types of precision ASTM and ISO cutting dies specifically for this machine.
What is the maximum cutting area available?
The standard cutting area for all models is 300mm x 300mm, providing ample space for large samples or cutting multiple sheets simultaneously to increase efficiency.
Is there a stainless steel option for cleanroom environments?
Yes, we offer a dedicated 3-tonne stainless steel model (C0050-M2) specifically designed for environments that require high hygiene standards or corrosion resistance.
