Two-column toggle presses are a type of toggle press used for a variety of metalworking and forming applications. They consist of two uprights, a toggle mechanism, and a ram that forms the workpiece. The toggle press has a lever mechanism consisting of a crankshaft, a connecting rod and a lever bar. The crankshaft drives the connecting rod, which is then transmitted to the ram through the lever rod. When the crankshaft is rotated, the ram moves downward and deforms the workpiece. Double-column toggle presses are particularly well suited for light to medium-duty forming processes where uniform force distribution is required. They can be used for a variety of applications, including bending, punching, cutting and forming metal parts. One advantage of double-column toggle presses over other presses is their compact design and the ability to be equipped with automated feeding systems and die changers. This increases the productivity and efficiency of the manufacturing process. Double-column toggle presses are available in various sizes and capacities and can be customized to meet specific customer requirements. They are widely used in many industries, including automotive, aerospace, electronics, and home appliance manufacturing.
