Hydraulic Blanking Press

(Click for Larger Image)

The press is used to form 0.750” plate used in the construction of tank and hopper rail car wheel structures. Because of the extensive forming load requirement for the press, the press was designed to be both robust and versatile. In addition to being capable of performing forming operations on plate sizes of 7' x 4' weighing approximately 650 pounds the press has the added capability to perform heavy blanking operations. To accommodate the high forces and break-through conditions encountered when blanking, an integral dampening system was also designed into the press.
