Example of a Greenerd 2,500 ton hot forming press that Greenerd custom designed, engineered, built and turn-key installed.
Greenerd Press & Machine Company has announced it will be highlighting the company's extensive hydraulic press and automation capabilities at FABTECH booth S30059. Application experts and design engineers from Greenerd will be available to discuss specific user applications and press requirements.
Greenerd designs and builds custom hydraulic presses with automation solutions for a range of industries and applications. One example that demonstrates these capabilities, which Greenerd will discuss at FABTECH, is a large 2,500-ton, hot-forming press.
Greenerd has designed, engineered and turn-key installed this 2,500-ton press featuring 10' square heated platens maintaining 500 °F surfaces to +/- 5°. The press comprises a seven-press order. The 2,500-ton press features an innovative mold transfer system that improves the ergonomic and safety dynamics for operators and reduces the press idle time between cycles.
"To meet the demands of today's challenging applications, we are providing manufacturers with press solutions that are flexible, productive and reliable, as well as often being quite large and complex," said Jerry Letendre, Greenerd Press & Machine Company's CEO. "For even greater manufacturing efficiency, we are able to provide our hydraulic press customers with turn-key, state-of-the-art robotic and other product handling solutions."
Greenerd is a Tier 1 Industrial Authorized Robot System Integrator of FANUC America Corporation. The partnership gives Greenerd full access to the comprehensive offerings of FANUC robots, including all models, training and support, providing state-of-the-art automation solutions in short time frames. Complete, fully integrated production systems can be provided, including simple raw material feeding systems and robotic solutions for loading/unloading the press, the ability to perform an optional secondary part manipulation or process, automated inspection of parts and stacking finished products for downstream processes. The scope of automation can also encompass part inspection systems ranging from small sensors to complex camera inspections and temperature monitoring/control of press and nonpress related systems. Streaming critical production data to and from the press is also offered.
Greenerd hydraulic presses are available in a variety of styles ranging from gap frame and straight-side to die-spotting and forging presses, with unlimited size and tonnage capabilities.
