Benefits of Press Work

Also known as a forming press, a machine press is a tool used to deform a workpiece under high pressure. The machine press pushes a plate or die against the workpiece surface and deforms its shape.

Presses boast unrivaled consistency and flexibility when forming metal. They offer a range of benefits.

  • Full tonnage throughout stroke
  • Adaptability
  • Versatility
  • Accuracy
  • Repeatability
