Greenerd Technical Case Study

4D-400-86X40-21R24

This pair of 400 ton presses is used to mold SMC into electrical cabinets. Electronic speed control allows for an adjustable pressing speed as well as intermediate and rapid close and open speeds. The Greenerd Press Control allows for both press and mold functions to be programmed and stored. Typical mold functions include initiation and pressure setting for hydraulic actuators within the mold.

Greenerd Press Control Solutions for Compression Molding 

We can incorporate a Greenerd Electronic Press Control into any of our hydraulic presses. Just imagine how the following control functions can improve productivity in your compression molding operation:

  • Provide feedback of most press functions, including ram speed, dwell time, operating pressures, distances traveled and other process parameters
  • Perform data acquisition and automate serialized production reporting
  • Control heating and cooling system set points and ramp rates in conjunction with press movements
  • Actuate any operation internal or external to the die, such as those utilizing eject pins, knockouts, or punches
  • Provide remote communications from your process via your buisness network or cellular connection. This capability can be harnessed for press monitoring, remote diagnostics, and trouble-shooting by experienced Greenerd service personnel

4D-600-120x36-38R

Built for the same process and customer as the 4D-300 below, this press molds SMC into components for the industrial lighting industry. This customer is running their three large, compression molding presses from Greenerd two shifts per day, six days per week.

GG-400-84x84

GG-400-84x84

This unique press is used to mold metal tape under an extensive dwell and pressure cycle. The 400 ton Gib-guided design will withstand an extreme, off-center load of up to 200 tons 33" off-center while maintaining parallelism of 0.015". This press is used to produce a mission-critical component for a military defense contractor. Greenerd was one of only two builders that would quote these extreme specifications.
