Peter Pugger’s introduces the latest in extruding technology. With new patented vacuum dearing capability, the VPE-8SS studio power extruder eliminates the issues that are inherent with traditional manual wall extruders and air assisted power extruders. With hands free control, sealed extruding chamber and plenty of force to extrude even the toughest shapes (large or small), Peter Pugger’s new VPE-8SS is the solution to those challenging projects.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSTORES MOIST MATERIAL INDEFINITELY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMOUNTS VERTICALLY OR HORIZONTALLY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eELIMINATES AIR BETWEEN “CHUNKS” OF MATERIAL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEASY MOUNT EXTRUSION DIES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eINTELLECTUAL (RAPID) RETRACT \u0026amp; EXTRUDING CAPABILITY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePATENTED VACUUM DESIGN (45 YEARS PROVEN)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVARIABLE SPEED CONTROL (HAND OR FOOT OPERATED)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSEALED CHAMBER ELIMINATES NEED TO CLEAN OUT AFTER EVERY USE DUE TO DRIED OUT CLAY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSMALL, EFFICIENT \u0026amp; QUIET\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAUTO SAFETY SHUT-OFF\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUSA MADE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003ch1\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Batch Capacity*:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperational PSI\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1200-2000psi\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e38″L x 16″W x 21″H (Horizontal Version)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHopper Door Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e5 1\/4″ x 5 1\/4″\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtrusion Size:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eMultiple configurations avail.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHydraulics\/Electrical:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1\/2 HP 1-phase, 8 amps at 120 volts, 4 amps at 240V\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVacuum Pump:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1\/2 HP, 3 amps at 120 volts, 2 amps at 240V\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrated Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 210lbs.
