When buying a press, you have several options, including manual, pneumatic, hydraulic, and hydropneumatic presses. Manufacturing companies commonly use pneumatic presses as heavy-duty industrial machines for deforming workpieces.
A pneumatic press utilizes a pneumatic system to apply force to a workpiece. Compressed air powers the press, driving a piston or a series of pistons that apply force to the workpiece. Manufacturing processes commonly use pneumatic presses to form, shape, and join materials. These presses are preferred because they generate a force greater than what the workforce can achieve alone. Industries use them for various industrial actions, such as pressing, squeezing, forming, and more.
Certain shaping presses have hydraulic systems for manipulating workpieces, called hydraulic presses. They can accomplish many of the same production tasks as their pneumatic counterparts. However, the two types of presses differ in how they are powered. Hydraulic presses are powered by pressurized liquid, with a descending piston pushing a top plate into the workpiece as it presses into the liquid-filled tank. The piston generates pressure in the liquid, which cannot expand, pushing the top plate into the workpiece.
On the other hand, pneumatic presses are powered by compressed gas or air and use compressive forces to manipulate workpieces, just like hydraulic presses. However, pneumatic presses employ pressurized gas or air, while hydraulic presses use pressurized liquid. Compared to hydraulic presses, pneumatic presses are faster and simpler.
Like any industrial equipment, following strict safety regulations when using a pneumatic press is essential. The following two guidelines are crucial to protect the security of pneumatic press operators:
