Machines
Every Multitek mounting press configured through Mouldz starts from the laboratory requirement rather than a fictitious universal model: actuation, cylinders, mould tooling, heating, cooling, controls and workstation options are specified to your laboratory. These families describe the starting architectures. Machines are designed and manufactured by Multitek Technologies.
Real machines
Multitek mounting presses are configured around mould diameter, pressure-control method, throughput, heating, cooling and laboratory utilities. These examples show real configuration families already offered by Multitek. Final specifications are confirmed against the customer RFQ.
Routine laboratory work where measured demand fits one complete mounting cycle at a time.
Laboratories where mounting becomes a measured throughput bottleneck and cycle phases can overlap.
High-throughput, special-tooling or integrated-workstation requirements that do not fit a standard single or dual layout.
Station count governs workflow and capacity; actuation governs how force is produced. Neither hydraulic actuation nor more stations automatically improves mount quality.

Multitek designs and builds metallography and materials-testing equipment in India.
Single-, double- and triple-chamber mounting presses are already publicly offered.
Mechanical, electrical and control choices are brought into one configuration review.
Non-standard tooling, workstation and station-count requirements can be captured without inventing a catalogue SKU.
