A paper stack press machine comprises a base 1 with a press surface 2, a pressing plate 5, and a pressing plate drive mechanism 6 moving the pressing plate between a standby position at which the pressing plate separates from a paper stack S on the press surface and a press position at which the pressing plate presses the paper stack against the press surface. A surface of the pressing plate facing the press surface is elastically deformable. A pushing bar 11a is arranged at the second side of the pressing plate so as to be movable in an axial direction thereof between a retracted position at which the pushing bar separates from the paper stack and an advanced position at which the pushing bar pushes the paper stack against the press surface.

Systems, devices, and methods are disclosed for a rosin press that allows improved extraction over existing presses. Computerized systems are provided for controlling and monitoring the system in an automated fashion, including via a wireless device or a server.

A radial press is provided having a first and a second ring structure extending about a press axis. Multiple press bodies are arranged about the press axis between the ring structures and are movably supported on support surfaces paired with the ring structures. The axial distance between the two ring structures can be changed using a drive system having a plurality of actuators oriented parallel to the press axis and distributed about the press axis. The support surfaces paired with one of the two ring structures are inclined relative to the press axis, and the press bodies are guided in a forced manner relative to the two ring structures in that the press bodies are equipped with guide grooves into which guide bodies engage.

A radial press is provided having a first and a second ring structure which extend around a press axis and a plurality of pressing elements, which are disposed around the press axis and are translatably supported on supporting surfaces associated with the ring structures. The axial distance of the two ring structures from each other can be changed using a hydraulic drive system, which has a plurality of hydraulic cylinder-piston units oriented parallel to and distributed around the press axis, the cylinder of each cylinder-piston unit being coupled to a first of the two ring structures and the piston rod of each cylinder-piston unit being coupled to the second ring structure. At least the supporting surfaces associated with one of the two ring structures are oriented at an inclination with respect to the press axis. An electromechanical rapid adjustment drive comprising a plurality of adjusters is also provided.

A clamping device has an actuator that moves linearly and is actuated by a drive. A pivoting clamping element is operatively connected, via a toggle lever mechanism, with the actuator. The toggle lever mechanism includes a drive-side adapter and a hand lever-side adapter. The drive side adapter and hand lever side adapter can be adjusted relative to one another to define an opening angle of the clamping element. One of the adapters has a profiled bar extending in a direction of actuation. The other adapter has an insertion region to accommodate the bar. A fixing element is provided in one of the adaptors to define the location of the adapters relative to one another. The fixing element can be clamped against the profiled bar and also against an insertion region.

A lamination apparatus, system, and method. The apparatus, system and method are for a lamination press for laminating at least one laminating film to a subject, which may include: an upper press comprising a gel plate, an upper vacuum chamber, and tooling suitable to apply the laminating film; a lower press suitable to maintain the subject to receive the laminating film, and comprising a lower vacuum chamber, an air bearing stage, and servo-positioned tooling; and an aligner that applies the servo-positioned tooling to maintain positional balance and alignment of the subject by the air bearing stage during the laminating while enabling vertical flexure of the lower press, wherein the positional balance and alignment is substantially continuously monitored by a controller.

Provided are laminating apparatus and method. A laminating apparatus includes a jig assembly, which includes the first jig and an elastic member, and a second jig. A laminating method includes placing a first plate on a jig assembly, placing a second plate on a second jig which is placed to face the first jig, bringing the second plate into contact with the adhesive layer by making the jig assembly and the second jig approach each other, and, attaching the first plate and the second plate to each other by making the jig assembly and the second jig approach closer to each other. The jig assembly includes a first jig and an elastic member which comprises a top portion and sloping portions sloping downward from the top portion. An adhesive layer is disposed between the first plate and the second plate.

A Press element and a method for manufacturing a structured press element, wherein a heterogeneous mask is applied on a metallic base element, after which a surface treatment is carried out and the heterogeneous mask has a certain resistance to the surface treatment.

Methods and apparatus to remove gas and vapor from a panel for a decorative layer are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a first press plate of a hot press to engage a first surface of a panel. The hot press is to apply heat to the panel via the first press plate to cure resin of the panel. A first portion of the first press plate is composed of a permeable material to remove at least one of gas or vapor from the panel to deter the at least one of gas or vapor from exerting a pressure on a decorative layer to be coupled to the panel to deter separation of a portion of the decorative layer from the panel.
