Single point and two point gap frame presses offer the best angular deflection rating under full load, exceeding industry standards by two-thirds.
Three key press features reduce production costs
Advanced power press generates significant cost savings for customers by combining a hydraulic overload protection system, link motion and wide-spaced connections in its design.
Featuring the stiffest slide guiding system available, Aida's high-speed presses maintain their accuracy under cold, warm, slow, fast and off-center operating conditions.
The bed, bolster plate, connecting rods, crankshaft and crown are also more rigid than a general purpose stamping press.
The added stiffness increases die life and improves part accuracy.

Deflection caused by off-center loads is also minimized.
Aida's exclusive combined bearing system provides customers with the best bottom dead-center repeatability on the market.
Aida's shutheight mechanism is also unique.
Unlike other high- speed presses, the shutheight adjusting motor is located off the slide.
This means inertia forces are reduced and the life of the adjustment motor extended.
Thermally stabilized, AIDA high-speed presses have a lubrication system that circulates oil to all moving parts in the press.
The lubrication unit's high-performance filter and efficient oil heater/chiller controls thermal expansion and minimizes its negative effect on bottom dead-center repeatability.
AIDA's complete line of high-speed presses can deliver speeds up to 2,500 strokes per minute.
They include the HMX-M lamination press which provides high speed flat blanking press users with the most stable process for production of a wide variety of laminations including motor, transformer E and I and slinky laminations.
Aida's AXEL is especially suited for the production of small intricate parts.
The Link Type Hypromax Press Exio series offers a variable stroke knuckle motion for production of diversified parts.
The Link Type Hypromax Press Linx series allows stampers to achieve more accurate restriking results by increasing the knuckle motion's dwell time near bottom dead center for a soft touch between the die and material.
The Sonic-V300 supplies the ultra high speed forming capabilities needed for precision miniature electronic parts.
Aida's DEL-300 provides very high operating speeds and a drop away bolster which allows for in press die maintenance.
