Hydraulic Presses

AMD utilizes years of engineering knowledge and experience to design and manufacture heavy hydraulic presses. Standard designs, and custom presses can be tailored to individual specifications and feature a wide range of engineering and operational innovations that offer many advantages.

Press Types Include:

  • Forming
  • Stamping
  • Deep Draw
  • Hot Trim
  • Hot and Cold Extrusion
  • C-Frame
  • Pressure Welding
  • Multi-Axis and Multi-Ram
  • Multi-Opening Laminating
  • Punch and Shear
  • Horizontal Configuration
  • Vertical Configuration
  • Hot Platen Presses

Press Design Considerations:

  • Full or Adjustable Tonnage Throughout Stroke
  • Cycle Time
  • Dwell Cycle
  • Multiple and Progressive Hit Capabilities
  • Adjustable Clamp Ring Tonnage
  • Overload Protection
  • 4 or 8 Point Adjustable Guides
  • Turntable Blank Storage
  • Speed Range
  • Shut Heights
  • Stroke Requirements
  • Bed Size and Types
  • Off Center Loading
  • Special Ram Guiding for Long Stroke Applications
  • Custom Requirements

Versatile… Available in a full range of sizes from 100 to 4500 tons with single, double and multiple axis. AMD Hydraulic Presses can be used effectively with extreme accuracy for a wide range of operations including:

  • Forming
  • Extruding
  • Drawing
  • Hot or Cold Trimming
  • Coining
  • Knockout
  • Punching

Rugged… The AMD Hydraulic Press features heavy duty four-column construction for use in forging plants, steel mills, and by metal and plastics fabricators. The designs also feature 8-point guiding, removable slide bolsters, and split ring piston rod connection.

All standard presses can be tailored to your process requirements or we can design and build a custom machine for your unique application.

Efficient… Engineered to deliver full tonnage throughout the stroke, concentrated over small and large bed areas, with minimal deflection. Hydraulic ram construction eliminates clutches, brakes, eccentrics gear trains and complicated mechanical machine components to minimize downtime for service and repairs. Every AMD Hydraulic Press features hydraulic overload protection and accommodates heat shielding as needed. It's low shock design and basic simplicity allows for easy installation with no elaborate foundation requirements.

Economical… AMD Hydraulic Presses operational cost savings are realized because its simple design and engineering concepts minimize costly service and repairs.
