Product overview

What is Vacuum Press Professional?

The Vacuum Press Professional (VP-P) is a vacuum membrane press designed for daily professional veneering, laminating, bending and solid surface thermoforming. It has a rigid laser-cut metal chassis, an 18 mm compact HPL worktop with up to 32 suction points and a 40 m³/h oil-free rotary vane pump that reaches up to 8.5 t/m². It is built in six sizes, with press areas of 2540, 3140 or 3740 mm length and 1420 or 1620 mm width, and with a 2 mm natural rubber or silicone membrane (optionally polyurethane on the 1420 mm wide models). To thermoform solid surface, the press works together with a preheating oven: the sheet is heated in the oven and formed in the press. The article on solid surface thermoforming explains the process step by step. Made in Moncada (Valencia) by Global Vacuum Presses, vacuum press manufacturer since 1991, with technical support in Spanish, English, French, Dutch and Portuguese.
