I am interested in buying a “Press”. There seem to be two general kinds: (1) Manual Arbor Press, (2) Hydraulic Press. Below are pictures of each kind. The hydraulic presses seem to be notably cheaper and apply much higher pressure. ( $1,950 vs. $2,750 and 50 Ton vs. 7 Ton in this example.) Would anyone be willing to compare and contrast these two types of presses and talk about guidelines to use when choosing one type over the other? Why would one want 50 Tons of pressure? I seem to need a press mainly to insert and remove pins and bearings when trying to fix machinery.
Thank you, Bruce
