The PM presses have been designed to cope with the most severe demands and the very specific conditions in the world of forging and die-stamping. The compact structure of the frame ensures a very high stiffness that reduces distortion during forging. These machines are fitted with huge flywheels providing the energy for forging with only moderate speed loss. Special care has been taken in the design of the ram. The ram is guided by 8 very long hardened bronze high precision guides, adjustable in each direction by non-reversible shims. The forging and die stamping press bolster is fitted with a mechanism for accurately adjusting the height between the bolster and the ram plate.
