Press, hydraulic/pneumatic

Instrumentation & Controls offers hydraulic/pneumatic presses. These presses are specially designed for economy when rate of production is to be fast. These presses can be operated either by compressed air supply at 100 PSI or by using electric supply. Compressed air is used to boost up oil-pressure, which is then fed to the main hydraulic cylinder to obtain a high ram force. The relatively long approach stroke of the cylinder is accomplished at low (generally 60 to 100 PSI) pressure thus. Benefits include high efficiency and precision, smoothness and control of hydraulic operation without complicated pump and high-pressure hydraulic valve installations. And the shift from low, approach stroke, pressure to high work pressure is automatic with time devices and appropriate circuitry.Capacities offered are 2, 4, 8, 15, 30 and 50, tonne; stroke = 50 mm, 75 mm, 100 mm and 150 mm; and power stroke 6 or 8 or 12 mm. Compressed air force is intensified to high force by air hydraulic booster. Thus advantage of hydraulic force is achieved by using compressed air available. Application: highly suitable for operations like blanking, punching, pressing, bending, forging, etc. This is ideal for marking, coining, stacking, etc.
