Shop Maintenance - Hydraulic Shop Press

SGS Engineering offers a complete sales, parts and servicing package for hydraulic shop presses of all types.

Power Team hydraulic presses can be driven by either hand pumps, electric/hydraulic pumps or air/hydraulic pumps as well as a whole range of single and double acting cylinders. These hydraulic presses are rugged yet reasonably priced, and with their maximum "day light" design the positioning of bulky work pieces is made easy.


THE UNIQUE BENEFITS OF THE POWER TEAM PRESS

1 - 2 TO 1 SAFETY FACTOR

on hydraulic cylinders and they meet ASME B30.1 standards. Cylinders are easily removed for other applications. Single- or double-acting cylinders are available; built-in relief valve on double-acting cylinders.

2 - FULL RATED CAPACITY

across width of upper frame, even with workhead moved to one side. (Heavy- duty presses only.)

3 - LARGER WORK AREA

than most competitors' models.

4 - ALIGNMENT LEVER

for simple pin replacement after raising or lowering the bed.

5 - CLOSE MANUFACTURING TOLERANCE

allows even load distribution over four alloy steel pins; not two, like some competitors. (Heavy-duty presses only.)

6 - OPEN THROAT FEATURE

on 25 ton press provides additional work area bymounting cylinder on outside for C-frame advantage.

7 - FRAMES CAN BE USED HORIZONTALLY

for pressing jobs on extra-long shafts.

8 - ELECTRIC, AIR OR HAND HYDRAULIC PUMPS

are available. All are standard Power Team pumps. CSA approved electric pumps are standard on all presses. Externally adjustable relief valve for precise operator control of working pressure is standard on all electric pumps except PE10 and PE17 series. 24 volt hand switch for remote control on pumps equipped with solenoid valves.

9 - ONE-MAN OPERATION

for bed adjustment. Winch unit quickly raises or lowers bed to desired height. Self-locking winch mechanism prevents bed from dropping when handle is released.

10 - 3/8" I.D. HOSE

on spring return cylinders on heavy-duty presses provides up to six times faster cylinder return than standard 1/4" I.D. hose.

11 - FAST CYLINDER APPROACH

to work provided by 2-speed hand, air or electric pumps.

12 - RUGGED UPRIGHTS,

50 percent stronger than channel iron. Four post design means open side for easy loading of long material.


NOTE : Certain features do not apply to Power Team 10 ton, Roll-Bed, or economy presses.
