Abstract: A precise shearing process can be made possible, with a cost-advantageous embodiment of extrusion residue shears, if the shearing forces and the shearing movement are applied or carried out in as compact and targeted a manner as possible. This can be implemented, in the case of a suitable embodiment of the corresponding extrusion residue shears or of the corresponding method, in each instance, by a suitable embodiment of the drive train that belongs to the shearing movement, by pulling of the related shear blade, by a shearing drive that is separate from positioning and/or by suitable regulation.

Abstract: An extrusion press for extrusion of a material to be pressed through a die has a recipient that holds the material to be pressed, and a module that can be displaced relative to the die. The module can be acted on, during extrusion, by an electric motor drive, with the force required for extrusion. The electric motor drive is connected to the module that is displaceable relative to the die, by a bearing unit that has play perpendicular to the force; and/or during extrusion, drives contraction devices for contraction of a region of a tension element that stands under tension, which element counters the force required for extrusion by tension, and/or is a linear drive, which displaces a module that is fixed in place relative to the die during extrusion and the module that is displaceable relative to the die during extrusion, relative to one another, during extrusion.

Abstract: A double-rod ram (1), preferably for an extruder, comprising an outer cylinder (10), an inner cylinder (20) installed therein and arranged concentrically therewith, a double-acting work piston (41) provided in the inner cylinder to be displaceable and a bypass device (50) with at least one bypass valve (52), wherein the work piston (41) divides the inner cylinder (20) into two compartments (42) and can be loaded with a hydraulic fluid from both compartments (42), wherein the bypass device (50) is so arranged that in a bypass position of the bypass valve (52) a fluid connection between the two compartments (42) is formed by a direct connection, preferably at least one bypass line, and in a work position of the bypass valve (52) no such fluid connection is present.

Abstract: Disclosed is an extruding press (1) for billets and tubes, comprising a press frame (2) which is composed of a cylinder-type bar (3) and an opposite bar (6) that is connected thereto. A movable running bar (6) and a movable receiving device (7) are disposed within said press frame (2), the receiving device (7) displacing a block (9) that is introduced with the aid of a charging apparatus and is to be pressed in front of the opposite bar (5) encompassing a matrix. A multifunctional robot (12) which can be moved on a linear guide (11), acts independently of the movements of the press, and is equipped with a receptacle head (13) is assigned to the press frame.

Abstract: A metal extrusion press has a pair of fixed crossheads spaced along a press axis from each other and a plurality of elongated upper and lower members extending axially between and rigidly connected to the crossheads. Each member includes a rod axially tensioned between the crossheads and a beam axially compressed between the crossheads. A movable crosshead is between the fixed crossheads, and a container is between the movable crosshead and one of the fixed crossheads. Respective crosshead and container guide units support the movable crosshead and container on the members and engage around the members. Rollers are engaged between each of the guide units and the members.

Abstract: The invention relates to an extruding and pipe press comprising a press frame that consists of a cylindrical spar and of a counter spar, which are joined to one another in a non-positive manner by upper and lower pretensioned drawing lamellae as well as by upper and lower pressure supports. A mobile running spar and a mobile feeder, which transfers a block to be pressed, said block being introduced by a charging device, to a pressing position in front of the counter spar with the die, are mounted inside said press frame. The running spar and the feeder can be displaced inside the press frame by means of guide units that comprise roll bodies.

Abstract: A frame-like traveling beam carrying a hollow press ram of a metal extrusion press and in which a traverse carrying a piercing mandrel is guided, has the side walls of that traveling beam progressively reduced toward a midpoint from each end along the guide path of the traverse. Surprisingly that reduces the spread of the side walls under load and limits the degree to which the mandrel may be guided eccentrically.
