Stamtec 2-Point and 4-Point Eccentric Geared Straight Side Presses

High‑Torque, High‑Precision Straight Side Presses for Large Dies, Deep Forming & Transfer Applications

Stamtec’s 2‑Point and 4‑Point Eccentric Geared Straight Side Presses are engineered for the most demanding metal stamping applications—where die size, part geometry, and forming complexity exceed the capabilities of conventional crankshaft presses. Built on ultra‑rigid straight‑side frames and powered by a high‑torque eccentric‑geared drive system, these presses deliver exceptional slide stability, precise tracking, and consistent forming accuracy across the entire stroke.

Designed to run large‑dimension dies, both left‑to‑right and front‑to‑back, these presses excel in progressive die, transfer die, and deep‑formed part applications. Their multi‑point drive architecture maintains slide parallelism and minimizes deflection, even under heavy off‑center loads.

The 4‑point series is specifically engineered for very large dies and complex transfer applications, offering the widest bed and slide areas in Stamtec’s mechanical press lineup .

Stamtec also integrates seamlessly with leading transfer automation providers—including HMS, Wayne Trail, Linear, Gudel, Atlas, AP&T, and Nobel—to deliver complete, high‑throughput transfer press systems. These systems can reduce scrap by up to 17%, since transfer dies do not require a scrap skeleton to move parts through the die .

2‑Point Eccentric Geared Straight Side Presses

High‑Torque, High‑Stability Presses for Long, Narrow, or Multi‑Station Dies

Stamtec’s 2‑Point Eccentric Geared Straight Side Presses are designed for applications requiring a longer bed area, stable slide guidance, and high torque at low inertia. These presses are ideal for:

• Long, narrow stampings
• Progressive dies with multiple stations
• Medium‑to‑large dies requiring stable slide alignment
• Applications where a straight‑side press is needed but a 4‑point design is not required

Key Features

• Low‑inertia, high‑torque eccentric‑geared drive for smooth, powerful forming
• Plunger guiding at each connection to control side thrust and maintain slide alignment
• Double‑helical gearing for quiet, smooth operation
• Enclosed oil bath & spray lubrication for long gear life and reduced maintenance
• Rigid straight‑side frame for minimal deflection under load

These presses provide the stability and accuracy needed for demanding progressive die work while maintaining a more compact footprint than 4‑point models.

4‑Point Eccentric Geared Straight Side Presses

Maximum Bed Size, Maximum Stability, Maximum Forming Control

Stamtec’s 4‑Point Eccentric Geared Straight Side Presses are engineered for very large dies, deep‑formed parts, and complex transfer applications. With four connection points and a massive straight‑side frame, these presses maintain exceptional slide parallelism and stability across the entire bed.

They are ideal for:

• Large dies (L‑R and F‑B)
• Deep‑draw or complex‑shaped parts
• Transfer dies with many stations
• Large progressive dies that eliminate secondary operations
• High‑precision forming across a wide bed area

Key Features

• Four‑point eccentric‑geared drive for unmatched slide stability
• Precision‑cut, steel‑rim eccentric gears for high torque and long life
• Plunger guides at every connection to control side thrust
• Double‑helical gearing for smooth, quiet operation
• Large bed and slide areas for oversized tooling
• Ideal for transfer systems, reducing scrap by up to 17% by eliminating scrap skeletons

These presses are the top choice for manufacturers producing large, complex, or deep‑formed parts at high volumes.

Integrated Transfer Press Capability

Seamless Automation for High‑Volume Production

Both 2‑point and 4‑point eccentric‑geared presses can be fully integrated into a complete transfer press system. Stamtec works directly with your preferred transfer automation provider to ensure seamless integration with:

• Servo transfer rails
• Feed lines
• Die lifters, clamps & QDC systems
• Automation & peripheral equipment

This integration enables higher throughput, reduced scrap, and the ability to run complex multi‑station dies efficiently.
