Pros and Cons Analysis
Advantages
Wide pressure range: By adjusting the liquid pressure and working plunger area, it is easy to obtain a large working pressure and adapt to different processing needs.
Large working space: there is a large working space and a stroke, which can process large-sized workpieces.
Constant pressure throughout the entire stroke: the maximum pressure can be reached at all places, which is conducive to complex processes.
Smooth running: smooth working, low vibration and noise, improved labor conditions, low requirements for the foundation of the plant.
Easy operation: With the standardization, serialization, and generalization of hydraulic components, the manipulation system is easy to realize and convenient to operate.
Protecting the mold: it is not easy to overload, and it can protect the mold.
Flexible pressure and speed regulation: It is convenient to adjust the pressure and speed to adapt to different molding processes.
Disadvantages
High precision requirements: high precision requirements for hydraulic components, complex structure, adjustment, and maintenance difficulties.
Leakage risk: high-pressure liquids are easy to leak, polluting the environment, wasting media, and hot processing places may cause fire.
Efficiency and speed problems: low efficiency, slow movement speed, fast, small processing scenarios are not as simple and flexible as crank presses.
Industry Development Trend
With the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and other technological developments, hydraulic presses are moving towards digital intelligence, which can realize remote monitoring, fault diagnosis, and intelligent control to improve production efficiency and quality. At the same time, to reduce energy consumption and pollution, hydraulic presses are also moving towards integration (reducing the number of parts, improving the compactness of the system) and green (using energy-saving technologies, environmentally friendly materials).
