Whether youโ€™re producing hand tools, gears, shafts, bearing housings, or connecting rods, PRI helps you select and configure the right forging press for your application.

Forging Press Lineup

Stamtec offers two primary forging platforms to support a wide range of forming requirements:

Cold Forging Presses

Designed for applications requiring maximum part strength and precision. Cold forging strainโ€‘hardens the material at a molecular level, producing extremely strong components with excellent dimensional accuracy.

Warmโ€‘Hot Forging Presses

Ideal for parts that cannot be formed at room temperature. Warmโ€‘hot forging uses softened steel to produce complex shapes, larger components, and parts requiring deeper deformation.


Why Choose a Stamtec Forging Press Through PRI?

Proven Forging Technology

Stamtec forging presses are engineered for high rigidity, long service life, and consistent performance. Their robust frames and tieโ€‘rod construction withstand extreme loads and repetitive highโ€‘force cycles.

High Production Efficiency

Forging presses shape metal through controlled compressive force, producing nearโ€‘netโ€‘shape parts that require minimal machining. This reduces cycle time and increases throughput.

Material Savings

Cold and warmโ€‘hot forging can reduce material waste by 40% to 60%, making forging one of the most economical methods for producing highโ€‘precision parts .

Versatility Across Materials & Applications

Forging presses are ideal for producing components that require exceptional strength, durability, and structural integrity โ€” including automotive shafts, gears, housings, and structural hardware.

Durability & Rigidity

Both cold and warmโ€‘hot forging presses feature highโ€‘rigidity frames and tieโ€‘rod construction for maximum durability.

How Forging Presses Work

Forging presses apply controlled compressive force to shape metal, improving its internal grain structure and mechanical properties. Unlike stamping, forging produces parts with superior strength and fatigue resistance.

This process enables:

Cold forging hardens the material during forming, while warmโ€‘hot forging softens the steel to allow deeper or more complex deformation.

Stamtec servo presses use a directโ€‘drive servo motor system that replaces the flywheel, clutch, and brake. This provides full energy at any speed, reduces impact forces, and improves part consistency.

High Production Efficiency

Servo presses can accelerate through nonโ€‘forming zones and slow down during forming, improving throughput while maintaining stable part quality. Pendulum mode further reduces cycle time by shortening the stroke length.

Versatility Across Materials & Applications

Servo presses support a wide range of forming modesโ€”including crank, link, coining, drawing, fine blanking, pulse forming, swing forging, and pendulum modeโ€”making them suitable for diverse applications and materials.

Costโ€‘Effective Operation

Servo presses consume less energy during idle operation and can reclaim energy during the upstroke, reducing overall power consumption. The energy management system minimizes electrical spikes and improves efficiency .

How Servo Presses Work

A servo press uses a highโ€‘torque, lowโ€‘RPM servo motor to drive the slide according to a programmed motion curve rather than a fixed crank profile. This enables:

This flexibility allows manufacturers to optimize forming conditions for each part, improving quality and extending die life.

PRI: Your Servo Press Configuration Partner

Selecting the right servo press requires more than choosing tonnage. PRI works directly with your team to evaluate:

Once your forming and tooling requirements are defined, PRI helps configure the correct Stamtec servo press, including:

Frequently Asked Questions

What applications are servo presses ideal for?

Servo presses are ideal for applications requiring variable slide velocity at multiple points in the stroke profile, including metal forming and shallow to medium drawing and forming .

What is the difference between a mechanical and a servo press?

A servo press is driven by a servo motor rather than a flywheel, clutch, and brake. This provides full energy at any speed and allows fully programmable stroke profiles.

How do servo presses compare to hydraulic presses?

Servo presses offer increased production volume and fully programmable stroke profiles, making them a strong alternative to hydraulic systems in many forming applications.
