Traditional warm isostatic press machines utilize multi-stage pressurization systems to achieve the required ultra-high pressure, resulting in complex structures and high energy consumption. Although simplified pressurization systems have been introduced to improve these drawbacks, they still fail to meet the requirements for producing powder material products under high-temperature, high-pressure conditions. To address this issue, manufacturers have developed and produced a fixed pre-stressed warm isostatic pressing capable of producing powder material products under high-temperature, high-pressure conditions.

Warm isostatic press are based on the structure of traditional isostatic pressing machines but incorporate a water tank, water tank heater, and heater sensor. The ultra-high pressure working cylinder is placed inside the water tank, and the working cylinder is heated by heating the water tank. The principle of operation is as follows: when high-temperature, high-pressure powder material products need to be produced, the water tank heater is activated to heat the water in the tank. The water tank transfers heat to the ultra-high pressure working cylinder through thermal conduction to raise its temperature. Meanwhile, the ultra-high pressure booster and pre-stressing frame provide the required high pressure to the working cylinder.

This type of temperature-assisted isostatic press features simple structure, convenient operation, and can meet the production requirements for powder material products under high-temperature, high-pressure conditions, overcoming the shortcomings of traditional warm isostatic press.
