3. Operation of the Mini-Pellet Press 

 
Pressing a sample in the Mini-Pellet Press is simple and quick. Taking 
the 7mm pellet die assembly (P/N GS03950) (

1

) as an example die to 

use, it is easily located within the pressing area of the Mini-Pellet Press 
(

2

). The lead screw assembly (

3

) is turned until hand tight to secure 

the 7mm pellet die assembly (

1

) in position in readiness to turn the 

pressure screw hand knob assembly (

4

). Only a light force is needed 

to turn the pressure hand knob (

4

) to provide a sufficient tonnage load, 

but the M8 Allen key provided can be used to turn the central socket 
screw (

5

) for greater leverage if desired. The produced 7mm KBr pellet 

is retained within the pellet die ring holder body (

6

) and this is 

transferred to a 3” x 2” slide mount (

7

) to fit in the spectrometer. (See 

Fig 1.)
