Compression molding requires precise pressure, position, speed control, and parallelism throughout the working stroke. Hydraulic presses can dwell under
pressure for any length of time, vary ram speeds, and provide a constant force over a large area, which is precisely the press characteristics compression molding requires.
A large majority of compression molding applications require large bed sizes but comparatively low tonnage. The ability to easily customize a hydraulic press assures that the purchaser need only purchase the press capacity they require, versus whatever is standard with a larger bed size.
Beckwood compression molding presses are ruggedly designed with the ability to be integrated into any molding application by offering a wide variety of performance packages for your needs. Hydraulic press improvements engineered to optimize the compression molding process include control of ancillary process equipment, actuation of internal die components (such as core knockouts, ejectors, and punches), and up-acting or multiple-action rams. Precision-heated platen integration with customer-specified heating tolerances and die controls are also common.
All Beckwood Presses can be designed with the ability to dwell under pressure, have variable ram speeds and provide a constant force over a large area. Additional features such as double and triple action rams and part ejection systems can be incorporated into a fully integrated press system.
