40-Ton Four-Column Hydraulic Press for Precision Leak Testing with Automated Pressure Control
Our workshop has recently completed the manufacturing of a specialized four-column hydraulic press specifically designed and engineered for conducting precise and reliable leak tests on a variety of components and materials. This robust machine is tailored to meet the critical requirements of customers who need to maintain consistent pressure over a defined duration while introducing gas to meticulously verify the absence of any leaks.
To achieve this demanding testing protocol, this SICMI four-column hydraulic press is equipped with advanced features for precise pressure management. A dedicated pressure-maintaining blocking valve ensures that the applied pressure remains stable throughout the test duration, preventing any unintentional pressure drops that could compromise the accuracy of the leak detection. Furthermore, the integration of sophisticated proportional valves provides an automated system that continuously monitors and automatically restores both the pressure and the piston stroke to the pre-set values, guaranteeing consistent testing conditions even over extended periods.
Safety is paramount in any industrial environment, and this hydraulic press for leak testing incorporates comprehensive safety measures. Photoelectric barriers are strategically positioned around the work area, creating a secure zone that immediately halts the pressing cycle if an operator inadvertently enters the protected space. This crucial safety feature prevents potential accidents and ensures a safe working environment.
Addressing the specific needs of leak testing procedures, the machine’s safety system features a customizable override. Upon customer request, the light curtains can be temporarily deactivated for the entire pressure holding time, specifically during the period when the hydraulic cylinder remains stationary. This intelligent design provides the operator with the necessary access to safely conduct the leak tests, such as applying testing solutions or closely inspecting the workpiece, without triggering the safety interlock and interrupting the test cycle.
This powerful four-column hydraulic press for leak tests develops a substantial pressing force of 40 tons, providing ample clamping force to ensure a tight seal during the testing process. The generously sized work tables, measuring 900 x 700mm, offer a substantial platform for accommodating various sizes and configurations of test specimens.
The hydraulic system is driven by a reliable 4 kW motor and features 10-meter long hydraulic hoses. This extended hose length offers significant flexibility in positioning the hydraulic power unit away from the immediate vicinity of the press, optimizing workspace within the workshop and reducing potential noise and heat near the operator.
All operational controls for this advanced electro-hydraulic press are conveniently located on an intuitive control console. This centralized interface also features a user-friendly Siemens KTP 700 digital screen, providing clear and real-time feedback on critical parameters such as pressure, holding time, and system status, allowing for precise control and monitoring of the leak testing process.
This 40-ton four-column hydraulic press represents a specialized solution for industries requiring accurate and safe leak testing capabilities. Its automated pressure control, customizable safety features, and user-friendly interface make it an indispensable tool for ensuring the integrity and reliability of critical components and systems.
