Tandem press machine works mainly for forming panels for outer and inner of automobiles.
Transfer press
This press machine has multiple dies in its own body. This is a highly productive press machine that can sequentially perform multiple forming processes in its own body. Transfer press works mainly for forming frame parts like front and center pillars and other small parts of automobiles.
Blanking press
This press machine cuts coil into sheets of thin metal material (Called it as "blank"). The blank sheets are transported to tandem press or transfer press.
Laser blanking (laser cutting device)
This device cuts coil into the blank sheets with a laser, without dies. This device can sequentially cut coil and set cutting shapes that are more efficient and minimize scrap.
