Technology Update
48 July /August 2007
AddisonMckee has introduced a new
range of C-frame hydraulic press solutions,
available in 25, 50, 75 and 100t variants.
Models, which can be tailored to specific
requirements, feature heavy-duty steel
weldments and a guidance system designed
to ensure precision and reliability.
AddisonMckee’s models can deliver full
pressing force at any point through the
range of the ram stroke, and advanced
controllability. The company recognised
that one of the key considerations when
choosing a hydraulic press is the amount
of force necessary to perform the function
required. The models were designed to
offer variable force and reduced setup time.
The new range was introduced as a result
of requests from customers seeking a high
quality hydraulic press solution capable of
integrating with their existing manufacturing
facilities.
Suited to most stamping, punching,
blanking, drawing and bending
applications, AddisonMckee C-Frame
models feature precision-guide ram,
removable bolsters, light curtain and the
convenience of single hand start. Rapid
advance, pressure and distance reversal
features are included in the machine
design, while the quick set adjustable
ram stroke offers adjustable force of 25 to
100 per cent.
Water and oil cooling is provided, along
with AddisonMckee HMI for machine setup
and alarms.
Available options include imperial or
metric versions, tee slots in upper/lower
bolster, U-slot or hole in bed/bolster, slug
pan, air/oil cooler, ram speed control and
a comprehensive package for auxiliary
devices.
The company also provides tube measuring
solutions, tube perforation, piercing and
louvring technologies, hydraulic press
machinery, muffler assembly solutions,
plant automation and complete workcell
integration.
