Side Cylinder for Press Machine

The side cylinder of the press mainly plays the role of supporting and guiding the movement of the piston rod in the press. It is usually used in conjunction with the master cylinder to ensure that the piston rod can maintain stable linear motion during the pressing process. The precision and wear resistance of the side cylinder of the press are of great significance to ensure the pressing accuracy and service life of the press.

Side Cylinder for Press Machine Introduction

A side cylinder for a press machine functions as a hydraulic cylinder mounted on the side of the press frame. It applies force to the workpiece from the side, as opposed to from above or below, making it suitable for various applications, including:

  • Forming: Side cylinders aid in forming sheet metal into intricate shapes, such as vehicle body panels or aircraft fuselages.
  • Stamping: These cylinders are employed to stamp parts from sheet metal, including washers, nuts, and bolts.
  • Forging: Side cylinders are utilized to forge metal components, such as crankshafts and connecting rods.
  • Extrusion: They can also extrude metal parts like pipes and tubes.
