Hydraulic Molding Press: Automotive Manufacturing

Monitoring Process Parameters: Quality Assurance Redefined

French Oil has harnessed Lean manufacturing concepts and automotive quality standards to craft an optimal performance system for its hydraulic presses, including the hydraulic molding press. With an electric monitoring system, every process parameter is meticulously assessed against preset tolerances, ensuring unrivaled part quality and consistency. This proactive approach drastically reduces costly scrap rates while ensuring traceability, reliability, and superior quality. Regardless of whether it’s a standard model or a custom design, French Oil’s monitoring system is adaptable and ensures adherence to industry standards.

Multi-Plate Insert Molding: Efficiency Meets Safety for the Hydraulic Molding Press

By integrating an automatic hydraulic press with a multi-plate insert molding process, French Oil optimizes productivity and operator safety. The robust sideplate press design features a shuttle system, plate separation, and part eject system, complemented by comprehensive operational guarding. This combination enhances productivity and reduces risks, reinforcing the automotive manufacturing ecosystem’s overall efficiency.

High-Speed Clamping Package: Precision in Motion

French Oil’s column style hydraulic presses are also tailored to meet the automotive industry’s dynamic production requirements. With multiple daylight, down-acting press designs, augmented by a polyurethane injection system, these presses form a pivotal part of turnkey manufacturing cells. This solution not only ensures high-speed clamping but also provides extensive tooling and part access, all while minimizing deflection. The incorporation of light curtains and a shuttle system further streamlines material loading and part removal.

LoBoy™ Compression Molding Press: Power and Flexibility

French Oil’s LoBoy 450-ton compression molding press, specifically, offers superior molding performance in a compact, powerful design. Engineered for ergonomic efficiency, it features an open-press working height that eliminates the need for a pit. This innovation allows for the creation of modular production cells, providing flexibility in design and layout while maintaining optimum performance.

250-ton Automatic Hydraulic Vacuum Press: Precision in Rubber Molding

TMP’s 250-ton hydraulic vacuum press for cold pot transfer molding caters to a range of rubber components, as well, including those used in automotive parts. The press’s insulated heated platens ensure uniform temperatures, enhancing the molding process’s precision. Custom features have been seamlessly integrated into the press, reducing cycle times and contributing to overall efficiency.

Low Deflection Hydraulic Presses: The Future of Friction Material Bonding

Finally, French Oil’s low deflection hydraulic presses revolutionize the bonding of friction materials in heavy construction vehicles. Designed in varying sizes, these presses boast heated platens capable of withstanding temperatures up to 550°F. The ingenuity lies in the self-contained hydraulic units mounted overhead, effectively minimizing the press’s footprint while maximizing its capabilities.
