When a cushion pad is pre-pressurized, pressure control is performed on the first hydraulic cylinder via a first hydraulic circuit so that a pressure in a lower chamber of the first hydraulic cylinder is pre-pressurized to a preset pressure, and position control is simultaneously performed on the second hydraulic cylinder via a second hydraulic circuit so that the cushion pad is held in the die cushion standby position. A force with which the first hydraulic cylinder moves the cushion pad upward is balanced with a force with which the second hydraulic cylinder moves the cushion pad downward (a force for holding the die cushion standby position).

Abstract: There is provided a press machine which can apply a large compression force to a mold as well as impart smooth vibration only in a rectilinear advancing direction to the mold, and thereby can improve the press-formability. A main slide and a sub-slide constitute a slide and at the same time a cylinder-piston mechanism. During press-forming, a compression force is transmitted to the sub-slide (an upper mold) through hydraulic pressure applied interlockingly with driving of the main slide, and the sub-slide is vibrated with the hydraulic pressure being periodically changed. Favorable press-forming can be performed even under relatively difficult press-forming conditions, by controlling the vibration such that a vibration frequency of the sub-slide (the upper mold) becomes 9 Hz or higher but 33.3 Hz or lower and a vibration amplitude of the sub-slide becomes 0.05 mm or larger but 0.5 mm or smaller.
