Radio Frequency Press type 350 Ton Plywood Press
About the Radio Frequency Press type 350 Ton Plywood Press
Radio Frequency Press is a heavy duty press utilizing hydraulic pressure for the precise pressing of plywood or other parts. The down-stroke platen is guided and easily accepts forms for curved parts. It is a very safe press to operate with a full sheet metal enclosure and numerous safety switches for interconnecting to a Radio Frequency generator.
Radio Frequency Press Specifications RF 350 Ton Plywood Press
General Specifications:
- Platen size will be 50" by 120".
- Loading area = 130" (between uprights for long veneer.)
- Press load height = 40”
- Platens = 1 1/2" thick high strength steel with a heavy steel plate frame.
- The top platen programmable to stop above the bottom platen at any given height.
- Daylight opening = 72" clear space.
- Platen position switch allows easy adjustment of the opening.
- Down-stroke pressure applied by six (6) each 8" bore x 36" stroke premium Atlas hydraulic cylinders.
- Cylinders apply more than 150 psi of pressure over the entire platen surface for a total pressure of over 350 tons.
- Hi-lo Hydraulic power unit, built from premium components, provides 1" per second travel speeds with 3 phase motor, controls, and all plumbing.
- Power unit mounted overhead to conserve floor space, with a catch pan to prevent hydraulic drips.
- The press hydraulic cylinders zoned in order to press small parts. Parts should not be smaller than half the platen width and length.
- Hydraulic pressure adjustable from the front of the press for convenience.
- Computer designed heavy welded steel frame and platens to minimize deflection under any type of loading.
- Deflection is calculated assuming a worst case, center loading of top cylinders at maximum working pressure.
