Hi all
We're moving to a new location, where the little inline granulators we have been using for years in the old place will not be installed.
If anybody is interested in one or more of them, please PM me.

Re: broken stampers 12" help needed!!!
Hi Andi Please check your pH. You're running too alcaline, maybe. One more thing comes in mind to me. I don't know how you manufactured the baths or modified the ones I gave to you, anyway, speed baths should have an extra pipe pumping extra sulfamate in the center. This is done to compensate the ce...

Re: Wanted materials to manufacture vinyl record
Well Mike, probably one of the two you were mentioning it's us: we make our own moulds, pins and bushes. Toolex pins and bushes are available to anyone, just write me a PM if interested. The quality and duration are excellent, the bushes are not collapsing at all, and the pins are quite lasting as w...

For sale: various energy systems for pressing
Hi all and merry XMas! As some of the moderators here know, we had two installations here in Italy, and recently we have moved everything to Milan because we needed more production capacity, and we got it simply by moving the machines without touching anything in the already installed energy systems...

Re: Noisy Transco Lacquers?
Are you sure that the positives are OK? I mean do you have listened with your ears? Anyway: If the noise comes only in the pressed records, and there is no PVC issue, the only reason can be the temperature of the moulds during the pressing. Cold spots in the moulds / cold parts of the puck which res...

Re: stamper playback system
Yes, we have the Stanton turntable and the cartridge etc.
Inherited from Polygram Italy..
We are not selling it, sometimes it is useful.
But if you want to know tech specs, I might investigate... =)

Re: Metal work - plating
These are Souri's discs I remember that in the past here someone tried to plate some Souri's discs without big success. But if anyone would like to try it out, or already has, here are some questions/ideas: 1. Classic lacquer discs have an aluminium plate inside, which prevents them from warping, of...

http://www.phonopress.it/bottin.jpg Here is my little contribution ... a little bit different from the usual splattered records etc. TCS manual press + additional extruder of the AD702, which is very close to one of the TCS (we were pressing with all machines today so I was able to try this trick) ...

Look - find 30K British Pounds. - find a CHEAP place, and in London it is impossible, maybe a bit in the countryside. Say 75 square metres. It is important that in the place it is allowed to keep some equipment OUTSIDE the walls. - dont sign with British Gas, an oil burner at the beginning will let ...

Hey Andi There are many different ways to do this and this is not only related to one-stop shops like we are, I have seen galvanic suppliers supplying stampers without any sanding in the label area as well. We always do this job on the lacquers in a very similar manner to what has been described by ...

Scratch the edges and the center of the lacquer so as to ensure conductivity Run at low temp and low amperage 38-40°C With these conditions, it's physically impossible that the lacquer is peeled off the aluminium I totally agree with Mossy: too high temp and if you manage to separate the lacquer fro...

Ah BTW Mike of course yes, if you put the PVC sheets you can avoid this issue, I mean you can put whatever you want, even no label in the back, and have this "glossy" finish over the black PVC and a perfect profile of the record. No problem. But PVC sheets - used for picturediscs - add a relevant hi...

Just a tech note to give a sense to this topic. Have you ever noticed that the "black" in the paper is visually not the same "black" of the PVC? It is a matter of different materials. You can print 100% K and do two/three overprints, nothing to do, it will look a bit gray or blue when compared to th...

It's the "Wikipedia" of the Toolex record pressing. Just some extra info: - in the list of needed equipment, I would add the steam traps - expensive - and also a tub where the extra condensate is going if the tank is full. I mean, if the tub near the boiler is for any reason full, the extra condensa...
