April 16, 2026

AutoPellet RP Designed for preparing pellets from powdered materials for spectroscopy and other applications, the machines in laboratory press manufacturer Carver’s press series are available in capacities of 25 tons and 40 tons. 

What’s new? The updated series, which Carver introduced last month at Pittcon Conference and Exposition in San Antonio. The new ergonomic presses are more compact and feature an enhanced color touch-screen interface that can store as many as 20 recipes. As an option, Carver offers a redesigned press stand for improved access and storage. 

Benefits Consistent, repeatable results. The presses perform automated pelletizing cycles, and an illuminated pressing area ensures improved quality control.
