Forging presses
Description
Hydraulic forging presses permit a targeted adaptation of working stroke to the process. This has a positive influence on the forming process and on the tool service life. Presslines for multi-station forming processes and single presses are available. Forming temperatures range from approx. 400° C (752º F) forging of aluminum to approx. 800 ° C (1472º F) for warm forming up to 1,200° C (2192º F) for the forging of ring blanks/slugs. The Schuler MH series range from 10,000 to 100,000 kN press capacity. Depending on customer requirements, presses can be fully automated including the delivery of furnaces and dies.
Advantages
- Unlimited work energy permits maximum press force over the entire stroke
- Infinite adjustment of the working stroke permits optimal adaptation of the press cycle to the forming process
- Long slide stroke for long parts provides an expanded range of possible products
- Overloading of the press is not possible
- Adaptation of the forming speed to the process produces superior workpiece quality and long tool service life
