Straight Side Presses
Hydraulic Presses
Brown Boggs standard heavy duty, Hydraulic Presses are designed
to meet and satisfy the customers specific specifications.
Through constant research and development, Brown Boggs has
designed a superb hydraulic press using only the highest quality
components in its construction.
Brown Boggs Hydraulic presses are available in unitized Gap
Frame design with guided platten and unitized or four piece, tie
rod constructed Straight Side design with 8 point adjustable
gibbing. All major weldments are stress relieved to ensure
integrity of geometry after assembly.
The fully programmable control systems, while displaying all
parameters, provides control of velocity through the entire
cycle, stroke length, and return stroke or force.
The main hydraulic power unit is a self-contained system
designed for the press. This unit contains a premium filtration
system for long life, including pressure filtering of the main
pump and an off-line filter/cooler designed to reduce the
particulate contamination to a minimum level.
The main cylinders are of heavy duty, mill type design and
mounted via heavy-duty flange to the frame.
Control of both rapid advance/return and pressing speeds of the
main cylinders is accomplished through proportional valving
remotely controlled via proportional electronics.
A centralized lubrication system with flow monitoring is
provided to shut down the press in the event of insufficient
lubrication
High Production Presses
Standard Design Features
Four piece, keyed, construction comprising of massive oversize
high tensile cast bridge, bed, slide and columns.
High-grade alloy bronze bearings, saddle bushings and
replaceable bronze wear plates are hand scraped for accuracy and
maximum life.
High carbon steel tie rods pre-stressed to a definite pre-load
by hydraulic nuts and shims.
Heat-treated carbon steel eccentric-shaft, ground to a micro
finish.
Trabon recirculating filtered oil lubrication system.
Exceptionally long 8 point adjustable slideways to maintain
alignment of slide over the full press stroke.
Adjustable air counterbalance with automatic and flow monitored
lubrication.
Pneumatic combination clutch/brake unit eliminates overlap.
High Production presses are available from 45 to 100-Ton
capacity with speed up to 500 strokes per minute.
Open Back Presses
Standard Design Features
Exceptionally long slideways to maintain alignment of the slide
over the full press stroke.
Adjustable air counterbalance to offset the combined weight of
the slide and heavy dies.
Combination pneumatic clutch/brake unit eliminates overlap.
(Optional on some models)
Dual fail-safe clutch/brake solenoid valve with remote reset.
Replaceable bronze ball socket.
Recirculating automatic lubrication system. (Optional on some
models)
Tonnage capacities of Brown Boggs Open Back Gap presses range
from 60 to 200 Tons with speeds up to 250 strokes per minute.
High alloy, solid bronze, hand scraped, main and pitman bushings
for closest fit, lowest wear and maximum life.
Heat-treated carbon steel forged crankshaft, ground to a micro
finish to ensure low wear characteristics.
Oversized crankshaft bearing for extended life.
Heat sensors in all main and pitman bearings. (To order only)
Readily accessible lubrication control blocks with indicators to
show blocked lines.
Extra heavy bolster and frame design to ensure minimum
deflection.
Heavy, sectionalized, box type slide, running on bronze liners
and cast gibs, tolerates off centre loading.
Long slide adjustment screw provides a solid, well-guided,
connection throughout the long adjustment range.
