Introduction for High Pressure Experiments (HPE)

Over the years a significant number of STRECON^® stripwound containers have been developed and applied as high-pressure vessels for different research activities, mainly at universities and laboratories in Europe and Australia. The STRECON stripwound container technology is used for many different high-pressure research projects, for example analysing petrologic and geological samples.

The strong interest in the STRECON stripwound container can be explained by a need of researchers and industry applying apparatus and related components that can facilitate their search for enhanced understanding of various physical phenomena. When searching for new and better answers - advanced methods, techniques, and equipment would be required. Among our customers you find the universities in Basel, Zürich, Frankfurt, Mainz, Kiel, Göttingen, Ruhr, Stuttgart, Bayreuth, Innsbruck, London, Bergen, Lund, Maspec in Parma, Canberra in Australia, etc..

Typically, we develop complete tooling packages including tool engineering/CAD, the tool system itself (which often consists of the stripwound container, carbide dies and anvils, cooling system, and other tool components in relation to the press), tool handling equipment, technical support during installation, and running in the system.
