2 Point Straight Side Presses

Stamtec’s 2 point straight side press drive train features a low inertia design with the gears running in an oil bath and spray system.

For superior strength, durability, accuracy, and consistency, gears are manufactured with steel hubs and forged gear rings fabricated in our own facility.

The gear teeth are finished ground and hardened to provide close running tolerances, prolonged life, and a smooth quiet operation.

Stamtec’s frame structure members are put through rigorous FEA (Finite Element Analysis) prior to manufacturing to insure proper design and superior strength.  The fabricated steel frame structure members are of a heavy, box-type construction and are fully thermal stress relieved before machining to assure uniform accuracy.  The frame is connected together with four full-length steel tie rods, which are hydraulically pre-stressed to 150% of press capacity, or welded together to form a single unitized weldment.  The massive bed is built to a standard of no more than .0015” deflection per foot of bed length left to right and front to back, with a full-capacity load symmetrically distributed over 2/3 of the bed area.  This design provides superior compressive strength, deflection, torsion, and vibration resistance.
