A pressing arrangement () is disclosed. The pressing arrangement () comprises a pressure vessel () comprising a pressure cylinder (), a top end closure () and a bottom end closure (), a furnace chamber () for heating a pressure medium, a plurality of guiding passages (), a load compartment () configured for holding at least one article to be treated, and at least one flow generator () for circulating pressure medium within the pressure vessel. The pressing arrangement further comprises a heat exchanging element () arranged in the top end closure or in the bottom end closure. The heat exchanging element comprises at least one passage for allowing a flow of pressure medium through the heat exchanging element, and at least one circuit for allowing a circulation of cooling medium within the at least one circuit for a cooling of the pressure medium.

Pressing arrangement and method of cooling article in said arrangement

There is provided an arrangement and method for handling a load for isostatic pressure treatment in a high-pressure arrangement. The arrangement comprises a transportation unit arranged in a first space, wherein the transportation unit is configured for horizontal transportation of a pressure vessel comprising the load into the high-pressure arrangement before pressure treatment of the load, and out of the high-pressure arrangement after pressure treatment of the load, respectively. The arrangement further comprises an elevator unit vertically operable between the first space and a second space provided below the first space, wherein the elevator unit is configured to lift the load from the second space into the pressure vessel before pressure treatment of the load, and to lower the load from the pressure vessel to the second space after pressure treatment of the load, respectively.

Arrangement and method for handling a load for isostatic pressure treatment

A method for processing at least one article in a pressing arrangement is provided. The method comprises the steps of: increasing the temperature in the load compartment by the at least one heating element in the furnace chamber; maintaining the increased temperature at a predetermined temperature level, T, for a selected period of time, t; and during the steps of increasing the temperature and maintaining the increased temperature, circulating the pressure medium within the pressure vessel by the at least one flow generator.

Method for processing articles and method for high-pressure treatment of articles

There is provided an arrangement and a method for handling a load for isostatic pressure treatment in a high-pressure arrangement. The arrangement includes a transportation unit including at least one track for transporting the load into a treatment position for isostatic pressure treatment of the load from a working space outside the high-pressure arrangement. Furthermore, the transportation unit is further arranged for transporting the load from the treatment position to the working space after pressure treatment of the load. The arrangement further includes a partition plane arranged at least partially above the high-pressure arrangement, wherein the working space is provided above the partition plane. The partition plane is arranged to shield the working space from the high-pressure arrangement in the event of a gas leakage of the high-pressure arrangement.

A high-pressure press is disclosed which includes a high-pressure vessel enclosing a high-pressure chamber and a high-pressure medium; a housing, separating a volume from the high-pressure press chamber, arranged for holding a fluid; a fan arranged in the high-pressure press chamber outside the housing for circulating the high pressure medium in the high-pressure press chamber; a motor, arranged in the housing and operatively connected to the fan for driving the fan; a cooling device for cooling a portion of the housing wall; and a pumping device arranged for circulating the fluid, the fluid providing a transfer of cold from the portion of the housing wall to the motor, the cooled circulation of the fluid being separated from the high-pressure press chamber by the housing.
