AIDA TMX Mechanical Transfer Press Features
- Advanced link motion (optional) provides a reduced draw speed and constant slide velocity
- Wide suspension point spacing for increased off-center load capability
- Tie-rod tightened frame, increasing rigidity and precision
- Eight-point square slide guide that limits lateral and longitudinal movement
- Minimal overall clearance to reduce the occurrence of breakthrough
- Overload protector utilizing an advanced metal seal design, offering fast response time for protecting your tooling & press
- Wet-type clutch/brake for less friction disc wear (optional)
8-Point Oil Film Slide Guide System
Easy Adjustment to Maintain Superior ParallelismExtra-long gib surfaces on the slide, always maintained within the guides provide superior off-center guiding vs. industry standard
AIDA Wet Clutch and Brake
High Single Cycle Rates, Low MainenanceHigh performance torque transmission system for mechanical press drives. Very little heat generation and component wear so performance does not deteriorate over time.
Dwell Link Motion
Ideal for Blanking and Progressive Die ApplicationsUnique slide motion providing slowdown through the working portion of the stroke. Proprietary dwell link motion has fewer bearing points than standard link motion designs, resulting in lower maintenance and better accuracy.
HOLP
Hydraulic Overload Protection SystemAIDA's press technology - the industry's fastest protection system. When overload occurs, oil evacuates 360 degrees around the ball seat with minimum oil flow resistance as compared to conventional systems
Wide Connections Spacing
Increased Off-Center Load Bearing CapacityReducing the negative effects of off-center loading and providing greater freedom in die design & layout.
