The AC frame, also known as a C-frame press, is a type of mechanical press known for its distinctive C-shaped structure.
This design offers a compact and economical open gap, making it easy to access the working area from three sides.
This three-sided access is particularly beneficial for tasks like die loading, maintenance, and parts removal.
5 Key Features of C-Frame Presses
1. Design and Structure
The C-frame press features a heavy welded and rib-reinforced steel frame.
This design ensures maximum rigidity and minimal deflection, which is essential for precision in assembly operations.
The robust structure not only enhances the press's integrity but also minimizes its footprint, making it ideal for space-constrained environments.
2. Accessibility and Versatility
The open gap design of the C-frame press allows for easy part loading and unloading.
This feature is particularly useful in both manual and automated manufacturing processes.
The three-sided access to the working area simplifies maintenance and die changes, thereby improving operational efficiency.
3. Customization and Range
C-frame presses are available in a wide range of capacities, from 1 to 100 tons.
They can be customized to meet specific application requirements.
This includes adjustments in daylight, stroke, and throat depth to accommodate various industrial needs.
4. Operational Features
The C-frame press is equipped with a hydraulic system that includes a pump, hydraulic cylinder, and adjustable pressure settings.
This allows for precise control over the pressing process.
The hydraulic cylinder can be configured with additional features like demoulding and charging functions, enhancing its utility in diverse applications.
5. Safety and Reliability
All C-frame presses are designed to meet current safety requirements, ensuring safe operation.
They are also built for long-term reliability with minimal maintenance needs, contributing to cost-effective and efficient production processes.
