OPAL 410
The OPAL 410 is a fully hydraulic, water cooled hot mounting press for mounting sample
NDA standard
Ships in 1–2 business days
Spec-match guarantee on every lot
Built for production teams
What your process engineer actually checks
Locked, traceable lot chemistry
Every lot ships with a COA documenting PSD, sphericity, flow rate, apparent density, and full chemistry — and a lot number you can trace. Aerospace and medical teams reorder 4+ times without re-qualifying.
Qualified parameters, not just powder
Validated parameter sets for EOS M 290, Renishaw 500Q, SLM 280, and our own AO Metal LPBF ship with the order. Load the profile and hit density on the first build — no parameter-development burn.
A materials engineer on the line
Questions on ferrite content, flowability, recyclate ratios, or HIP response? A materials engineer answers directly — not a contact-form bot. Most replies in under 4 hours, NDA standard.
About this product
PRODUCT ADVANTAGES
• Automatic hot mounting press
• Fully hydraulic, water cooled
• Bayonet closure
• Automatic program cycle
• Mould assembly easy to change
• Solid aluminium case construction, powder coated

• Fully hydraulic, water cooled
• Bayonet closure
• Automatic program cycle
• Mould assembly easy to change
• Solid aluminium case construction, powder coated
SIMPLE OPERATION
The bayonet connection enables
easy loosening and swinging to
the side. Externally accessible
closure components are PTFEcoated. After pressing the start key, the fully automatic program is executed with the preselected parameters. The parameters can be changed and adjusted during the mounting process.
MOULD ASSEMBLIES
Our comprehensive selection of mould assemblies from Ø 25.2 – 40 mm enables optimum mounting of your sample. Two mounts can be produced simultaneously with the use of a
spacer.
ELECTRONIC CONTROL
With its clear LCD operation panel you can easily control the hot mounting press.
HEATING
Our high-power heating system gives a very short warm-up time.
COOLING WITH WATERSAVING FUNCTION
The mounting process is either cooled with continuous or pulsed water flow. Thereby, a considerably lower water consumption can be achieved by pulsed cooling.
PRESSURE CONTROL
Besides the standard operation, you can choose between six pressures depending on sample diameter.

★★★★★
Same lot 4 times in a row. We stopped re-running parameter sweeps after the second order — density was identical to the first build.

Asked about ferrite content on a Friday. A materials engineer answered Monday morning with actual data, not a sales pitch. That's why we keep ordering.

COA matches the bottle. PSD and flow are exactly what was on the sheet — we run it on a Renishaw 500Q and it hits density on the first try.
