160 Ton Gap Frame Stamping Press – FP 160P

The FP 160P sits in the upper-middle of our heavy-tonnage range of gap frame stamping presses, rated at 1,600 kN (180 US tons). Its wide 0 - 6.77 in stroke range suits complex forming work, at 45 strokes per minute in continuous operation. The 31.5 x 43.31 in bolster accommodates large, heavy dies, and the 8-point gib-guided slide's close match to bolster size keeps force evenly distributed even across dies this size, allowing larger progressive tooling. On lines with frequent heavy die changes, motorized slide adjustment reduces operator workload, while the hydraulic overload protector keeps both press and tooling protected over years of service. Like every Fresan press, it's backed by over 40 years of press manufacturing experience and built for years of continuous production use.
