High performance hydraulic powder presses have been manufactured by us since 1993. These are generally with an operating range from 150 tons to 450 tons and customized to specific needs, from small manual presses for laboratory work to a full production line including press, tools and furnace. We are in the unique position of being a small manufacturer of sintered components and thus a demanding internal customer. Particular focus is therefore given to reliability where the very first press delivered in 1993 continues to operate perfectly.
The powder metallurgy industry, supplies cost effective precision components in a relatively small size interval. Large components require large compacting presses, which demand high investment both in equipment terms and in some cases location. The size of a large press may demand roof height and/or floor reinforcement, which can be extensive. This has a negative effect on the component price and is thus a limiting factor for the industry when competing with other techniques.
The dream of a precision hydraulic press with a small size, and low capital investment which can achieve the pressures required for high density multilevel components, including large components, initiated this development process.
A new construction concept opened the way forward and an intensive development process has resulted in a new powder press, Hercules. Hercules is a compact, cost effective powder press with high capacity and high reliablility. The price of Hercules is only 1/4 of the price compared to conventional hydraulic presses. We manage to keep a low price thanks to our own development work and production.
When purchasing a powder press, we can put the press into operation and train your personnel on site. We offer maintenance and support contracts that are personalized for your business.
