Top 4 Types of Hydraulic Press Machine

The hydraulic press uses Pascal's principle of law. It uses the power of liquids for operation. Typically, a Hydraulic Press Machine will have three important parts; Machine, power source, and hydraulic control unit. Most Hydraulic Press Machine Manufacturer use one or more oil pumps as a power mechanism. The machine uses gear pumps for low pressure applications up to 2.5mp, blade pumps for medium pressure applications up to 6.3mp and plunger pumps for high pressure applications up to 32mp. Hydraulic presses reduce production costs and will improve strength and stiffness. The article use of hydraulic press will provide more details related to this topic.

Hydraulic Press Machine has many applications in our daily life such as emptying, deep drawing, straightening, punching, bending, forming and molding. It is impossible to perform all these applications accurately for specific hydraulic presses. Therefore, to achieve all these functions, we have separate hydraulic presses to perform these functions. Some of those hydraulic presses are discussed here.

Four-Column Hydraulic Press

Four-column hydraulic presses are used for accuracy tooling applications. Four-column four-beam hydraulic presses, four-column three-beam hydraulic presses, and four-column two-beam hydraulic presses have recently been various categories. These presses are highly endorsed for applications where pressure is a major consideration. The four-column press will provide uniform pressure distribution. Flexibility, versatility, smooth turnaround, ease of operation, fast setup and maintenance, low cost, etc. are some of the advantages of the four-column hydraulic press.

Single Column Hydraulic Press

The single column hydraulic press is also known as the C-Frame Hydraulic Press. Because the body of this press is in a C-type single-arm structure. Excellent rigidity, guide performance, speed and high accuracy are the advantages of single-column hydraulic presses. The automotive, electronics, household and medical industries use C-frame hydraulic presses for applications such as sheet metal forming, plastic forming, bending, deep drawing, and so on. C-frame presses are convenient for small and medium-sized facilities because of its low floor space consumption.

Horizontal Hydraulic Press

Rail straightening and shaping, plate straightening, punching, structural straightening and contouring, punching, etc are some of the important applications of horizontal hydraulic presses. It is a multi-purpose machine and its components can be assembled, disassembled, straightened, compressed, perforated, etc. A standard horizontal hydraulic press will include a unique hydraulic system to protect the machine from overload. Various tools can be attached to this press. The heavy cast iron body of this hydraulic press provides maximum life span. The height of the working table can be arranged based on the comfort of the workers.

Two Pillar Hydraulic Press

The two pillar hydraulic presses can be divided into oil presses and water presses based on the type of fluid used for the transfer of power. Water-based two-pillar hydraulic presses are commonly used for forging and stamping. Durability, ease of maintenance and operation, etc is the key features of this press. In addition, these presses can be adapted to the needs of workers by integrating other equipment.
