About the Hot Press

Where a cold press relies on time, a hot press relies on heat: heated platens cure the glue line in minutes instead of hours, which is what makes veneering, flush door production and thermoset laminate work commercially viable at volume.

The MH-3848A series gives 120 tonnes of total thrust across a 1300 × 2500 mm platen, carried on eight oil cylinders. Single, two and three daylight versions let you match press capacity to the batch size you actually run.
