Double Point Straight Sided Press
DOUBLE POINT STRAIGHT SIDED PRESS
The MDE Series Double Point Straight Sided Mechanical Press is built for large-scale stamping and forming operations requiring strength, stability, and balanced force distribution. Its robust straight-sided frame combined with a twin-crankshaft drive ensures uniform tonnage across the die area, reducing deflection and improving part quality. Designed for high-volume production, the MDE Series provides durability, repeatable accuracy, and reliable performance for automotive, appliance, and general metalworking industries.
GET PARTS ANYWHERE
Our control systems are made with open source, readily available components. We use no custom-made OEM parts.
IMPROVED SERVICE LIFE
We use a high frequency quenching on our slide guides which reaches over HRC 48. Rail grinding is above RA 0.4 and the average flatness is 0.03 mm/m2. The result is reduced wear, sustained precision and longer service life.
STRENGTH AND WEAR RESISTANCE
Bronze worm gears reduce the probability of seizure and greatly reduce the process of die adjustment. The bronze-copper alloy (ZQSN10-1) extend the service life when compared to cast iron worm gears.
MORE STAMPING
We use a sintered TM-3 copper alloy ball seat as opposed to cast iron. The TM-3 copper alloy has a surface strength of 1000 kgf/C m2. This alloy reduces the probability of seizure and at the same time extends the service life of this part.
LESS WEAR AND TEAR
The all bronze-copper alloy sleeves are made of Tin, Phosphorus Bronze ZQSN10-1 and are about 1.5 times stronger then just copper BC6. The result is reduced wear.
STRONGER AND BIGGER
Our crankshafts are made of high strength 42 CrMo alloy and are larger than most. They are forged, heat treated and inspected for flows. The result is that the strength is 1.3 times higher than that of 45 steel and breaking is reduced.
HARDENED AND STRONGER
Our thimbles are chromium plated with a surface between RA 0.4 and RA 0.8. They are then hardened to HRC 48. This provides an excellent oil seal to ensure seal life.
LESS WEAR ON TOOTH SURFACES
The gear shaft is made of high strength 42CrMo alloy and all tooth surfaces are treated with intermediate frequency which increases hardness. The advantage of this is less wear on tooth surfaces and higher meshing precision.
IMPROVED SERVICE LIFE
We use a high frequency quenching on our gear drives which reaches over HRC 48. Rail grinding is above RA 0.4 and the average flatness is 0.03 mm/m2. The result is reduced wear, sustained precision and longer service life.
WORKER SAFETY SHOULD NOT BE AN OPTION FOR A PRESS
We are very serious about worker safety. That is why all our presses include full size CAT4 safety light curtains as a standard feature. The light curtains work along with the other safety features to ensure worker safety at all times.
MORE OIL, LESS WEAR
We use 8 mm diameter copper lubrication pipes to ensure proper lubrication on all critical points. The larger and higher gauge pipes reduce the possibility of breaking and ensure a constant flow of oil.
OPTIMIZED STRUCTURE
Through SolidWorks finite element analysis (FEA) we optimize the press structure and refine the design for maximum performance.
INVESTMENT
We Give You More Press For Your Money.
To be competitive today’s economy requires that manufactures run their operations more efficiently and cost effectively than ever before. We offer the highest ROI (return on investment) in the industry. MetalPress gives you high-quality products for a reasonable investment and with more features than any other company. Simply put, we give you the most bang for your buck!
SERVICE
We Can Remotely Troubleshoot Your Press from Our Facility.
Our Double Point Straight Sided Presses include a Remote Connectivity Unit which allows our press technicians to remotely check the performance of the press, make any needed changes to the program or HMI, or to troubleshoot it directly from our service center. The customer is only required to connect the unit to the Internet via an Ethernet cable. We handle the rest.
COMPONENTS
We Use Brand Name Components You Know, Already Use and Trust.
We use only the finest quality components that are open source, and readily available locally in your area, or from our online parts store. We do not use any impossible to find proprietary components.
REMOTE MONITORING
Remotely Monitor Your Stamping Press Performance From Any Device.
As an option, all our presses are available with Industry 4.0 remote performance monitoring units which feature a custom dashboard. You can not only monitor press performance, but you can be notified before an issue occurs. Included are condition based maintenance reminders and shift performance statistics. Minimize impact of emergencies and maximize press uptime, and productivity. Monitor what is going on with the stamping press and your production efficiency from any device, anywhere in the world.
