I'm trying to find a fast hydraulic press to press in bushings. 20 to 30 tons is all I need. Where I'm having trouble is finding one that is fast. I only need 4" of travel on the piston. The ones I've seen have a piston travel of about 0.2" IPS working and maybe 0.25" retraction. At 0.2" IPS that is 40 seconds for one cycle. I'd like something about double that speed so I can get 3 parts out per minute.
Most of the presses I've looked at are in the $5K or lower price range. Maybe I need to look at more expensive units or are they all going to be about the same speed? Appreciate any help on sourcing something. We run on 220v.
