Hydraulic Press Machine – The Inexhaustible Beast, Find Out How!

Forming sheets of metal from metallic objects, thinning glass, crushing cars, and making powders are some of the tasks of a hydraulic press machine. The hydraulic press machine is widely used in industries for various operations.

Working Principle of hydraulic press machine

Two cylinders containing hydraulic fluid are connected. One larger cylinder is called Ram. The other smaller one is called a plunger. Hydraulic cylinder contains liquid only for a special reason as liquid doesn’t get compressed easily. A small amount of force on the plunger presses the liquid downwards. This uplifts ram due to the even distribution of pressure. As a result, presses the material placed between both the cylinders.

This is how the hydraulic press machine works based on Pascal’s Law, which says that pressure will remain the same in both the cylinders i.e. ram and plunger even though their difference in sizes (the larger cylinder – Ram, the smaller cylinder -plunger).

Advantages of Hydraulic Cylinder

1. Inexpensive

When compared with the mechanical press it's much cheaper as it holds no complexity in its structure. Just as its price is less, its maintenance cost is also low as there are lesser breakdowns and due to its simple design even if some part needs to be replaced, it can be easily replaced.

2. Overload protection

A hydraulic press is designed in a way that it doesn’t exert excess pressure than its defined maximum limit. A 40-ton hydraulic press will exert 40 tons of pressure only, not more than 40 tons. In case, the pressure level is set for less, then it will release the set amount only. A relief valve is opened once the set limit is reached, preventing the hydraulic press from surpassing the threshold or set limit of pressure.

3. Less noise

A hydraulic press machine produces less noise than any other machine like the mechanical press due to its lesser moving parts.

Hydraulic press machine is manufactured by HPP Group comes with extended durability, powerful construction, and the best functionality. So when looking for a hydraulic press machine or cylinder, do consider checking HPP Groups. Their hydraulic Press machines are sturdy and durable as they are built with high-quality raw material.
