Arbor Press
Arbor Press FAQ
How much vertical pressure does the ACTIVE arbor press apply?
The ACTIVE arbor press delivers up to 2500kg of mechanical pressure using carbon steel gearing to seal press-fit cartridge mouthpieces. Direct downward force locks snap-on mouthpieces flat across internal silicone gaskets without fracturing glass reservoirs or distorting center posts.
For complete plate clearance adjustments and tray leveling guidance prior to filling runs, view our Jig and Press Setup Guide.
- Carbon Steel Frame: 32kg net equipment weight built with rubber feet to prevent workbench sliding during operation.
- Adjustable Press Travel: Variable press distance from 0mm to 150mm designed for diverse cartridge heights.
- Protective Nylon Press Pad: Soft-touch contact pad prevents scratching or cracking during high-force press strokes.
What operational errors cause damage to cartridges during pressing?
Over-pressing past zero clearance, operating the press handle backward, or setting the press head too far above the hardware causes shell cracking and leak paths. Maintaining proper alignment ensures mouthpieces snap down completely square without crushing silicone seals.
Check hardware height and tray dimensions against technical specification tables inside each product listing prior to starting batch production.
How is the ACTIVE arbor press packaged and shipped?
Inventory ships directly from our Sacramento warehouse so clients can order individual units or full facility equipment setups without minimum constraints. Direct regional dispatch eliminates factory lead times and ensures capping equipment arrives ready for filling line deployment.
