Single-stage cart on rails, operator on board
50+ tons

Die carts on rails with integrated operator stand are designed to cover large distances between storage and press. Based on a special design incorporating standard components , these carts can be adapted to suit various application needs. For example, they can be equipped with custom loading extensions or lifting devices

  • die change time: depending on distance between storage and press
  • best efficiency and repeatable change time even over large distances
  • ideal for serving several presses in a line
  • built-in safety mechanism, movements are monitored via optical sensors
  • powered electrically and hydraulically, the cart operates completely exhaust-free

Domino system
up to 50 tons

A Domino System is the preferred solution when an entire line of automated presses is to be served at the same time. The system is designed and built according to the individual application.

  • die change time: below 3 min
  • very short change time; preparation during press uptime
  • built-in safety mechanism, movements are monitored via optical sensors
  • powered electrically
  • save spacing, distances between presses in the line may be reduced to dimension of dies
  • see Domino Xchange process
Rolling bolsters
Rolling bolsters
50+ tons

Rolling bolsters are the preferred solution when the press table is at ground level. They are built according to the application's environment.

  • die change time: 15 min
  • die handling at ground level
  • built-in safety mechanism, movements are monitored via optical sensors
  • very cost-effective solution
  • powered electrically
  • raised rolling bolsters are also available (For press beds up to 30" above the floor)

Fixed and mobile loading tables
50+ tons

Our loading tables are designed according to the application environment.
They can also be equipped with special lifting devices.

  • die change time: 15 min
  • accurate, repeatable positioning
  • built-in safety mechanism, movements are monitored via optical sensors
  • mobile tables may be removed if their space is needed otherwise
  • powered electrically, exhaust-free

Special versions of the PPS push-pull system
50+ tons

Based on the standard PPS, the special versions are custom-built to the application'senvironment and requirements.These systems are generally used together with our standard loading consoles or die shuttles on rails. removable versions are also available.

  • die change time: 15 min
  • built-in safety mechanism, movements are monitored via optical sensors
  • very cost-effective solution
  • expandable in steps with die shuttles and/or consoles
  • powered electrically

Die racks
up to10 tons

Our die racks are built according to the individual application and adapted to the transfer device in use.

  • very robust welded structure
  • space saving
  • easy storing, easy retrieval of dies
  • dies are kept safely
Special versions of the GPO Truck
up to 10 tons

Based on the standard GPO die truck, the special versions include options such as dual load tables, custom-sized load tables or a pick-up device for metal-band coils.

  • die change time: 15 min, 5 min for dual load tables
  • accurate, repeatable positioning
  • built-in safety mechanism, movements are monitored via optical sensors
  • allows die handling at both the press and the storage shelf
  • not sold in the U.S.A.
Single-stage driver-operated trucks
up to 30 tons

Our driver-operated die trucks are based on customary vehicles for loads up to 5 tons; for higher loads we use our own special design, incorporating standard components. the truck can be adapted to various application needs; for example, it can be equipped with special platform extensions, lifting masts or multi-directional carriages.

  • die change time: 15 min
  • many options and accessories
  • highly adaptable design
  • accurate, repeatable positioning
  • built-in safety mechanism, movements are monitored via optical sensors
