Uour reference plants
Heat-resistant multi-stage press for the production of silicone seals
With two levels and thermally insulated support plates, this special press can press molds at temperatures up to 450 °C for casting special silicone molds. The PLC control allows for digital adjustment of the target pressure and holding time. The control system monitors and regulates the pressing pressure fully automatically. Should the contact force change during the holding time (e.g., due to the slowly cooling mold), the force is automatically readjusted. A manufacturer of specialty seals is already successfully using several of these machines in its multi-shift production.
200-ton special press for the dismantling of nuclear power plants
This special press is used to compress radioactively contaminated filter mats from the decommissioning of nuclear power plants. For cost-effective final disposal, it is essential to reduce the volume to a minimum. The large-area press plates, guided parallel by bolts, distribute the pressing force over the largest possible area. To enhance operator safety, the system is also equipped with a two-hand control panel. Another special feature of this press is its dual applicability: a conversion kit allows the press plates to be removed and an extendable roller carriage to be mounted, enabling the compression of steel drums. To ensure the press can be used at multiple decommissioning sites for as long as possible, the design allows the machine to be transported horizontally in a transport container for low-level radioactive materials.
Special press made of V4A stainless steel for the pharmaceutical industry
This custom press, designed for a renowned pharmaceutical manufacturer, is used to grind a solid raw material in the production of creams. The machine is designed for use in a cleanroom and is constructed entirely of V4A stainless steel. It is operated via a two-hand control panel, with the pressing process taking place behind a protective polycarbonate enclosure.
200-ton press for international construction site containers
This 200-ton press is designed to be installed in shipping containers as a mobile workshop. Key requirements included reducing the overall height of the unit and ensuring a drive system that could operate flexibly on international power grids outside Europe, using both 60 Hz and other voltages. As part of the mobile workshop, the hydraulic press travels with the container from construction site to construction site and is a crucial component in tunnel construction. The machine is being manufactured in series for a renowned manufacturer of tunnel boring machines and has already been used in Egypt and Canada.
Assembly station for diesel pumps
For the assembly of large diesel pumps, the customer required the cylinder head cover to be pre-tensioned using a hydraulic press so that the cylinder head bolts could be installed during assembly. For this purpose, a press was integrated into a roller conveyor, which applied the necessary pressure to the pump housing on the assembly line. The roller conveyor and press were fully pre-assembled by Tigermetal at their factory, including the electrical control unit and hydraulic unit, so that the customer only had to integrate the unit into the roller conveyor.
