LARGE



Large Ram Design for Compression Molding The large single-acting ram design ensures even molding pressure. Jack rams are used to increase the closing speed, as well as develop the break-away force necessary to open certain molds. Four post and slab side models are available. These presses are ideal for transfer molding of elastomers, as well as compression molding of larger parts from composite materials. A complete range of platen sizes is available, with clamp force range from 400 - 1000 tons.




OVERSIZED PLATEN



The large platen presses are available with oversize bolsters for minimal deflection, resulting in improved part quality. An energy-efficient hydraulic system, in conjunction with jack ram cylinders, assures rapid closing of the press, and then a slow closing segment. This configuration is ideal for composite molding applications where minimal cycle time, high molding pressure and accurate temperature control are required. These presses are available in clamp force ranging from 15-1000 tons, and platen sizes up to 100" x 60". Various control systems are available to configure the press to your exact requirements. 400 - 1000 tons.

CARRIER CONSOLES / QUICK DIE CHANGE



Consoles allow our customers to place their molds on these extensions and roll them into the press for easier mold changes. They can be fitted to virtually any press either during initial build or retrofitted in the field. The consoles can then be easily removed from the machine with a "no-tool" operation.
