Mecolpress range of presses
For metals hot forging it is possible to use both mechanical and hydraulic presses. Mecolpress proposes high-tech and of different types machineries in order to satisfy nearly all production needs.
Mecolpress presses are indicated for copper, brass, steel, titanium and aluminum hot forging.
Mechanical presses
Among Mecolpress hot forging mechanical presses there are eccentric mechanical presses that are classified according to the nominal force. SOV model for vertical forging: they require an average energy consumption and are characterized by their high productivity. Instead, the SEO presses are developed for the forging of parts with coring and are divided in:
- SEO: (at single cycle): presses for forging with horizontal coring, high energy, medium Productivity
- SEO- CVE/CS: (at continuous cycle): presses for hot forging with horizontal coring, high energy, high Productivity
- SEO-F: (a ciclo singolo): (at single cycle): presses for forging with vertical coring, high energy and medium productivity
Another type of mechanical press offered by Mecolpress is the screw press.
The screw presses are divided according to the screw diameter and there are three available models:
- TDS: direct control with electrical servomotor. The screw diameter goes from 240 mm to 525 mm.
- Dellavia: friction discs control. The screw diameter goes from 130 mm to 460 mm.
- Osterwalder: friction discs control. The screw diameter goes from 150 mm to 220 mm.
Hydraulic presses
Our hydraulic presses are part of ME series and are characterized by their dies closing force that goes from 100 to 500 Tons.
These are the tonnages we have realized so far, but we can realize tonnages with greater closing force, as well. The horizontal coring punches force goes at present from 30 to 350 tons and also in this case, upon request, it is possible to produce the machine with a greater force than the indicated one.
Presses for parts coining and calibration
Mecolpress offers to its customers that need presses for parts coining and calibration the knuckle joint press of PG series, that are characterized for their low stroke and very high productivity.
These are classified according to their nominal force.
Machineries for parts trimming:
Mecolpress trimming machines are classified according to nominal force, as follows:
- PO:trimming machine with single station, low productivity, generally used for manual loading, H structure. Tons from 10 to 60.
- S: trimming machine with multiple stations, provided with rotary station with hydraulic motor. It is characterized by a medium productivity rate and it is used for manual or by automation loading, H structure. Tons from 10 to 60.
- E: Trimming machine with multiple stations, equipped with rotary table with electrical motor, high-medium productivity, more suitable for loading by automation or robot, C structure. Tonnage from 10 to 60.
Thanks to the variety of offered machineries, our sales department can suggest you the press that best fits for your project according to the type of part to realize and according to the specific conditions in which the customer operates.
Steel hot forging: Mecolpress solutions
Mecolpress boasts a very long experience as producer of mechanical and hydraulic presses for the realization of hot forged steel parts. For a complete and detailed overview of our presses, please contact our sales department.
For the hot forging of steel parts, it is possible to use mechanical or hydraulic presses according to the geometrical complexity of the part to be forged and to the features of the specific alloy used for the forging.
Steel features
Steel is well-known for being a material having a considerable mechanical resistance and this characteristic makes it a material suitable for innumerable application sectors, including construction industry, automotive and railway sector.
Through the mechanical and hydraulic Mecolpress presses, it is possible to realize different types of parts, including for example screws and valves.
Steel hot forging presses
Mecolpress proposes to its customer companies different presses both mechanical and hydraulic for steel hot forging.
During the forging process of this material it is necessary to pay attention to the used energies and temperatures. Regarding the forging temperature of the billets, at presence of steel alloys, this goes approximately from 1.000°C to 1.200°C. The dies temperature is about 300°C, instead.
Moreover, during the steel hot forging process it is necessary to use the right lubricants in order not to wear the die and to optimize the production.
During the hot pressing of steel, the right lubricants must also be used in order to facilitate the flow of the material and the detachment of the same from the die. Mecolpress equips its presses with automatic lubrication systems with fixed or mobile points according to the specific application and in order to optimize the production process.
Our sales department remains at customer’s disposal to suggest the most suitable press to the production specific needs and, in addition, in the after-sale step it is possible to take advantage of a customized training course against payment, in order to learn all the tricks to make the best use of the bought press according to the production type.
The production cycle can be carried out completely automatically or manually according to the customer’s specific requests.
All the screw presses are customizable according to customer needs.
