Fitter and stronger than ever: A 1,600 ton press gets fresh components and a "second life".

Knoll Hydraulik Service Techniker arbeitet an Aggregat vor Ort.

For a company that produces high-tech ceramics, we equipped a press that had already been in use for a long time with new hydraulic systems in order to meet contemporary requirements, but also to significantly increase the service life of the press unit.

Within the scope of a risk analysis of the electrotechnical control system extension, it was determined that the press safety of the 1,600 to press there had to be strengthened according to the current state of the art. We tackled this challenge in close and dynamic cooperation and were able to offer solution-oriented options.

In connection with the customer's renewal of the electrotechnical control system, an additional safety block was integrated into the machine in cooperation with Bosch Rexroth, and the existing press safety block was supplemented with position-monitored cartridge cartridges.

The installation of new piping as well as hose connections was carried out by our service technicians on site. In the course of this, among other things, the hydraulic accumulators were also replaced with accumulator safety blocks. For mounting the additional press safety block, our CAD design department supplied a special solution for installation in the existing machine frame.

High-performance ceramics are indispensable for high precision requirements as well as mechanical and thermal load capacity. These are used in areas such as renewable energies, medical technology, sensor technology or defense technology.

The result of the retrofit is an improved machine that is now up to date and will do precise and good work for many more years. It is motivating to see how committed our customer has been to improving his production equipment. We are convinced that many companies could benefit from similar projects.

A retrofit project can not only improve the performance of your machines, but also increase safety and help reduce operating costs. We are happy to assist you in planning and implementing equipment updates and making your machinery fit for the future!
