* Combining the tried-and-tested and the innovative: new extended-table press - behind the unassuming name Feintool HFAplus LT lies an innovative concept that has been designed to expand applications and increase productivity.
The double-size tool table is capable of accommodating multi-stage modular tools and total press forces of between 450 and 1,100 tonf (4500-11,100kN).
This not only facilitates more efficient tool making, but, thanks to increased stroke rates and cutting orders, makes it possible to double output and reduce parts costs by around 20%.
These are crucial competitive advantages for Feintool's customers.
