Pellet Die Sets

Die sets determine pellet geometry, density and surface quality. Standard circular sets from 3 mm to 150 mm, square and rectangular formats, splitable sets for fast demoulding, hardened alloy and tungsten carbide options for wear resistance, and dedicated FTIR KBr and XRF ring configurations.
