Requires: *100+ psi, compressed air *Cooling water (not required but recommended) *220VAC (currently wired with a 50A forklift-style plug) *110VAC (for vacuum pump) Functions: *Telescoping cantilevering stage *Ridiculously thick pressure chamber (2" tool steel at minimum) to ensure zero distortion *PID-controlled, configurable heating platen zone *Pneumatic-actuated door opener and closer *Adjustable pressure regulator (0-125psi) *Adjustable cooling time (seconds to hours) *Adjustable dwell time (seconds to hours) Inside dimensions: 16" (40cm) W x 50" (127cm) D x 5.5" (14cm) H Total weight: Unknown (perhaps 2200lb/1000kg) E-mail me for video footage of it running. I have a strong background in solar panel manufacture, and can link you up with suppliers of different solar panel parts with your purchase if needed. Shipping: Local pickup, and can work with winning bidder to have your shipper pick it up. Item is still hooked up, and inspection is allowed. Item was manufactured by BEST Manufacturing Co., 1974. There are a few updates here and there (including a new vacuum gauge and pressure regulator that we installed, and process controllers that look somewhat recent). If you've been shopping for solar panel laminators, you know that there are year-plus waits from most of the major manufacturers for new. Why not buy used at a fraction of the price? They don't make them like this anymore, and that's not necessarily a good thing. All of the components are big, off-the-shelf, and easy to troubleshoot, and making a few knockoffs of this machine would be easy. Thanks for bidding! Place a Bid!
