2 SACMI HYDRAULIC PRESS Introduction The Series 2000 press has been designed according to the finite elements technique, used extensively in the aeronautical industry. The press table and the upper cross beam, for example, are made using casting processes that cannot be influenced by human error. The parts are assembled by tightening nuts on steel columns, thus preloading the structure: this procedure minimizes the structural fatigue and strain that are typical of the rapid cycles the machine is able to can carry out. It s as if the entire system were steadily gatheringits strength before unleashing its full power, thus compensating for and reducing the stresses caused by the enormous pressing forces.
