  • Simple and safe setup and operation
  • Proportional and non-proportional systems available
  • Simple limit switch ram control as standard with PLC options
  • Center load and even tonnage across the bed are perfect applications for the model AP.
• The model AP four column press is guided by heavy duty A660 bronze bearings (available everywhere in the USA) along turned, ground and polished chrome columns to ensure years of maintenance-free, reliable operation. These high-speed production presses are designed with maximum contact to bearings for uniform control. Parallelism and flatness dimensions are critically held tolerances on all presses.
• HYDRAULICS:
• The hydraulic cylinder(s) are manufactured with urethane lip type seals, bronze bearings and shafts of chromed 1045 steel, turned, ground and polished. The system is self-contained and complete with oil cooler. It also includes a filter, overload protection, a hydraulic pressure tonnage gauge and control and a counterbalance valve to absorb shock in punching operations. A pilot operated check valve is supplied to prevent drifting of the ram and a decompression system is also provided to reduce shock at the bottom of the travel.
