Upsetting
Reduce cycle time, scrap costs and tool wear, and improve finished product quality.
Upsetting press technology
Fast, precise forging
A hydraulic press delivers a continuous, controllable punch – ideal for precise forging. In this press, the two side cylinders are servo-controlled and have a precision better than +/- 0,1 mm – even though they move with a speed of up to 350 mm per second!
The system features 3 individual forging functions:
- one clamping/preform
- two extrusion/upsetting functions from the sides
Metal bar and forged product
3 complete main systems: one clamping cylinder and two side cylinders for tools
Great flexibility
- Allows to perform extrude operation instead of upsetting
- Adapt forming speed to input material
- In tool design and punch holder design
- Use standard punches = lower cost, less inventory
- Tool set-up is easy on the Hydraulico Upsetting Press
- The harsh impact noise is eliminated
