Accurate Forging Starts With the Right Frame, Ram, and Control
DUNKES’ open-die forging presses feature rigid, heavy-duty frames and deep rams with a high guide ratio, delivering superior parallelism, precise ram travel and stability under eccentric loading. These systems are built to handle the toughest forging tasks without sacrificing accuracy.
For fully integrated operations, our presses are engineered to coordinate with manipulators and other plant systems to maximize productivity and repeatability.
To maintain part quality, optional billet temperature monitoring systems reject workpieces that fall outside of spec. Add-on packages for temperature control and rejection chutes help ensure only properly heated billets enter the forging zone, protecting your dies, your parts, and your uptime.
