Hammerhead Hydraulic "Gantry-Style" Traveling Head Press
HYDROTRACK SERIES
The HydroTrack Series is a “gantry-style” traveling head press featuring manual operational controls. The hydraulic cylinder is built into the traveling head, providing precision and reliability for a wide range of through-cutting applications. This series is ideal for industries that require direct interaction with the material, piece-by-piece quality control, high-visibility, and easy operation.
Features
Base Features:
• Encoder-based depth setting (Macro-adjustment)
• Timer-based cutting depth (Micro-adjustment)
• Compression counter & hour counter
• JIC hydraulic fittings
• Two handle/button operation with anti-tiedown and anti-double-click functionality
Safety Features:
• Recipe-saving technology (Automated Models)
• Soft starter to balance startup amperage & increase energy efficiency
• Thermal overload protection
• Phase monitoring & over-voltage protection
Benefits
• This series has great visibility and flexibility for manual cutting operations
• This machine is very simple to operate with very minimal setup and training for operators
drawbacks
• Hydraulic machines are generally noisy at around 90-95dB and energy inefficient
• Like Swing Arm Clicker Presses, the requirement for manual interaction by the operator means that certain safety measures must be implemented through procedures. Some models in this series cannot utilize conventional solutions like safety light curtains
