Hydraulic presses

Specifically, hydraulic press lines are proving especially profitable in companies that integrate die making with part production.  The other area of growth for hydraulic presses is in the world of composites and press hardening, where the part curing times make the total production levels low and the investment in faster and more expensive presses does not offer a clear “payback”.

At FAGOR ARRASATE, together with the customer, we can analyse requirements and propose the best investment, also taking into account future forecasts.

Hydraulic presses are the best option in many cases because of the advantages they bring:

• They considerably reduce the initial investment.
• They reduce the cost of operation.
• They are highly versatile (with flexibility in control that facilitates the possibility of waiting at different points of the stroke to carry out mould filling, material curing, etc.) as they make it possible to manufacture parts from carbon steel, boron steel, high elastic limit, reinforced plastics, SMC, RPF, IMC, composites, etc.
• They are highly versatile when it comes to using various types of dies (with different sizes or performance levels).
• As it has a high capacity, all types of parts can be manufactured with fewer presses.
• They make it possible to not only produce but also test and tune the dies without the need for additional means.
• They are very useful in the manufacture of spare parts, or parts for car models that are being abandoned because they have completed their cycle.
