Press Highlights

Both of our 1-point gap fame press series provide important advantages for your operation:

Air-actuated wet clutch and brake deliver rated torque at relatively low air pressure, resulting in reduced lining wear and air consumption.

Greater heat dissipating characteristics promote longer life and better performance, even at high single-stroking rates.

Fast response hydraulic overload protection system relieves the pressure of a tonnage overload in milliseconds, stopping the press immediately and protecting the press and dies from damage.
