About this machine
This Bucher Guyer SA CH KH is a laboratory press — sometimes referred to as a lab press or hydraulic press — a precision piece of equipment used to apply controlled pressure to test samples, compress materials, or carry out small-scale forming and laminating operations in research, quality control, and development environments. Bucher is a well-established Swiss engineering group with a long history of supplying technical equipment across industrial and agricultural sectors.
Dating from 1979 and offered in used condition from Barneveld, Netherlands, this is a column-type laboratory press built around a four-column frame with a 60 mm column diameter, giving the machine a robust and stable structure suited to consistent, repeatable pressing operations. The press operates with two platens, each measuring 500 × 500 mm, and delivers a working pressure of 0.51 bar with a total pressing force of 5 tonnes. The stroke is approximately 290 mm, providing useful daylight between the platens for varying sample thicknesses.
Both platens are electrically heated, each rated at 1,720 watts, giving a combined heating capacity of 3,440 watts and enabling controlled-temperature pressing for applications such as laminating, vulcanising, or material testing. A total electrical capacity of 18 kW is specified for the machine. The platens are also noted as being capable of cooling, making this unit suitable for processes that require a controlled heat and cool cycle. The press is equipped with its own hydraulic unit and includes switchgear, meaning it arrives as a largely self-contained system.
The drive motor is rated at 2.2 kW and is configured for 220/380 volt supply. The machine has a floor footprint of 2.3 × 1.4 metres and stands 2.7 metres tall in total. The seller notes that the stated size of 500 mm refers to the platen dimensions specifically.
