05 — Key Advantages
Why Choose the 400-Ton Sinter Hydraulic Press
The 400-Ton Sinter Hydraulic Press offers controlled deep-drawing force and adjustable blankholder cushioning designed for forming steel wheelbarrow tubs. Its rigid four-column guidance, programmable speed profiling, and rapid cycle times prevent sheet tearing and deliver distortion-free, deep-drawn buckets.
Technical & Commercial Benefits
High 400-Ton Hydraulic Force Enabling Single-Stroke Deep Drawing
Delivers continuous drawing tonnage to stretch deep-drawing quality steel sheets into seamless wheelbarrow tubs in one pass. Single-stroke forming eliminates multi-stage drawing operations, reducing production labor and equipment costs.
Adjustable Hydraulic Cushion System Preventing Wrinkling and Tearing
Provides precise blankholder pressure control around sheet metal margins during deep drawing. Balanced perimeter clamping allows uniform metal flow into the die cavity without flange wrinkling or wall tearing.
Rigid Four-Pillar Structure Maintaining Strict Platen Parallelism
Features a heavy pre-stressed four-column frame that resists lateral deflection during off-center deep-draw loads. Absolute parallelism ensures consistent tub wall thickness, uniform rim curling, and accurate bolt-hole positioning.
Programmable Speed Profiling Optimizing Sheet Stretching Dynamics
Slows down slide velocity during tool engagement to facilitate smooth plastic deformation of cold-rolled steel blanks. Controlled drawing speeds protect sheet surface integrity and prevent micro-cracking along tight corner radiuses.
Fast Rapid-Traverse Movement Yielding High Hourly Tub Outputs
Utilizes high-speed hydraulic pre-fill valves to achieve rapid approach and return speeds for short cycle times. High press productivity enables factory yields of 180 to 250 finished tubs per hour to meet large volume demands.
Low Impact Hydraulic Forming Extending Tooling Service Lifespan
Smooth hydraulic pressure application reduces impact shock on hardened alloy punch and die cavity surfaces. Reduced tool wear lowers regrinding frequency, minimizes press maintenance downtime, and extends die lifespan.
