Fast, Safe and Precise Sample Preparation for Plastics, Paper, Textiles and Composite Materials
The Ray-Ran Pneumatically Operated Test Sample Cutting Press provides a simple, efficient and reliable solution for preparing accurate test specimens from a wide range of materials including plastics, rubber, elastomers, paper, fabrics, laminates, boards and composites.
Designed for quality control laboratories, research facilities and manufacturing environments, this robust pneumatic cutting press delivers consistent cutting performance while reducing operator effort. With cutting forces up to 50 kN, the system can quickly produce repeatable samples from sheet materials up to 8 mm thick, supporting reliable downstream testing and material evaluation.
Powerful and Precise Pneumatic Cutting
Powered by compressed air up to 10 bar (145 psi), the Ray-Ran sample cutting press provides smooth and consistent cutting force for a wide variety of materials.
The compact yet durable design requires no permanent bench mounting, making it suitable for flexible laboratory setups. The supplied 250 mm × 150 mm cutting platform and polypropylene cutting board provide a stable surface for accurate specimen preparation.
Safe and Easy Operation
Operator safety is prioritised with an integrated polycarbonate safety guard that prevents operation unless correctly closed.
The adjustable cutting arbor accepts standard 25 mm diameter cutting tool shanks, with alternative arbor sizes available to meet specific testing requirements.
The pneumatic operation ensures effortless sample preparation while maintaining consistent cutting conditions between operators and test batches.
