Overview
Mori's PZ FL 2C series basket presses represent Mori's top-of-the-line press, for whom quality, convenience, and repeatability are of utmost importance. Forklift channels in the press tray allow you to load and unload with ease.
The 2C series contains four different hydraulic pistons. The main dual pistons on either side of the press move the pressing platen up and down, exerting up to 40 metric tons of force (about 88,000 pounds) over the 95 cm pressing plate.
The smaller side hydraulic pistons allow you to separately move the basket up and down. After pressing, this allows you to quickly move the basket up and out of the way so that you can forklift the tray containing the pressed-out cake for dumping. Users who are focused on increasing throughput often purchase an additional tray so that they can unload the pressed cake, quickly swap in the new tray, and lower the basket onto the new tray so they can load and press the next batch, dumping out the previous batch during the next pressing cycle.
PZ FL 2C presses come standard with a preprogrammed PLC containing several pressing "recipes". They also allow you to program or customize your own press times and set pressures so that you can simply load the basket and hit "start" on your ideal pressing program.
