Abstract: A system of a separable frame for presses and press frames (1), the respective press frame (1) comprising uprights (2) and a head piece as an upper cross connection (3) and a press table as a lower cross connection (4), which as structural units form a closed frame that absorbs static and dynamic forces for any required functions of a press such as the drive of a ram used for forming with tools. The uprights (2) are attachable laterally or longitudinally to the cross connections (3, 4) by non-positive or non-positive and positive joining geometries (5) and releasable connector (5.1). The proposed press frames (1) have a reduced vertical deflection (v2) compared to press frames joined by tie rod bracing (6).

Abstract: A method for operating a machine tool includes determining and providing/storing energy for machining a work piece as available energy by considering a first value of the energy to be applied of at least one element of the machine tool to store energy. Available energy provided in a section or in a partial section of a motion sequence of a stroke element determined for machining the work piece is gathered. Part of the available energy of the energy to be applied for machining the work piece from an energy potential provided/stored in the machine tool is used. A second value for an effective required energy is formed via at least one energy-storing element. A control/regulation of different energy transfers or contents of individual drive components is influenced in an accelerating or decelerating manner during a sequence of the stroke element or during a path of a stroke to compensate for asymmetric loads.

Abstract: In a working method using a device for operating presses including a ram and a die, such as forming presses or cutting presses, for example multiple-die presses for large workpieces, transfer presses, multi-ram transfer presses, such forming presses or cutting presses also being arranged in press lines, smaller ram strokes result in optimized freedom of motion of the press, in place of the existing large freedom of motion, the acceleration and speed of the ram are at most maintained, or reduced, while parts output is increased, and smaller paths are made possible due to dynamic ram stroke and transfer movements. To this end, the work process of the ram stroke of presses is controlled according to a curve that follows the function f(x)=a(0)/2+a(1)*cos(1*x) +...+.
