Presses(64)

The press is a machine used for working and deforming sheet metal. The main processing of this machine consists in producing a progressive pressure on the material placed in the mould in order to deform or shear it. In principle, the press is composed of a base, a frame, by the columns, by the motors that generate the force and by the management and control systems of the processing. According to the system that produces the workforce, we will distinguish two different types of presses, the mechanical press and the hydraulic press. The mechanical presses are divided into eccentric and screw presses. Screw presses are used for hot working while eccentric presses are used for cold working of sheet metal. Hydraulic presses, on the other hand, replace mechanical presses when it is necessary to apply a constant force for a given period of time.
