New LabTop 300 Laboratory Press Enhances Graphene Research at GEIC Manchester
Intelicare is proud to announce the successful installation of a LabTop 300 hydraulic press at the renowned Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC) at The University of Manchester. This latest addition further strengthens the GEIC’s world-leading capabilities in advanced materials research and reinforces Intelicare’s commitment to supporting innovation across UK academia and industry.
The GEIC is internationally recognised for accelerating the development and commercialisation of graphene and other 2D materials. By investing in high-performance laboratory equipment such as the LabTop 300, the centre continues to enhance its ability to support cutting-edge research, prototyping, and collaboration with industry partners.
The LabTop 300 heat press is a highly versatile laboratory press designed for precision material testing, sample preparation, and small-scale production. Its robust construction, intuitive controls, and compact footprint make it ideal for research environments where reliability and repeatability are essential. With a higher pressing force capacity than smaller benchtop models, the LabTop 300 enables researchers to work with a broader range of advanced materials, including composites, polymers, and graphene-based formulations. The LabTop 300’s precise temperature and pressure control ensures consistent results, supporting the rigorous standards required in advanced materials research.
Intelicare worked closely with the GEIC to specify and supply a solution tailored to their technical requirements and laboratory environment, ensuring the chosen press would deliver both performance and long-term reliability.
This installation highlights Intelicare’s ongoing collaboration with leading research institutions and innovation centres across the UK and Ireland. By supplying high-quality laboratory and processing equipment, we help customers accelerate research, improve efficiency, and bring new materials and technologies closer to commercial reality.
We are delighted to support the Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre in its mission to advance graphene research and industrial application. We look forward to continuing our partnership and assisting with future equipment requirements as the GEIC drives forward the next generation of advanced materials.
