Wondering whether to buy a servo press or a hydraulic press? Then read on to find different attributes of the two to help you decide!
As manufacturers who are dedicated to creating the best press brakes, we have compiled a list of pros and cons to help you come to a conclusion.
Difference between a servo and a hydraulic press brake:
- Does not have fast-cycling speeds, but does provide more variety with its variable stroke length, die space, and pressure.?
- Suitable for manufacturing parts with deep, intricate forms that demand a lot of material flow but are not speed-sensitive.
- Hydraulic presses are commonly used to manufacture parts such as tanks, cylinders, and bowl forms, as well as parts that require a “dwell” at the bottom of the stroke (such as plastics).
- Less cost-efficient.
- A servo press has a lot of the same flexibility as a hydraulic press, but at production speeds that are close to those of standard mechanical presses.?
- Not suitable for manufacturing parts with deep, intricate forms that are not speed-sensitive.
- The stroke, slide motion, slide location, and speed may all be programmed to work with a wide range of dies, part types, and production speeds.
- Servo press is more cost-efficient and aids in increasing its competitive edge. Servo press brakes are incredibly quick throughout the pressing cycle, leading to higher cycle times per minute, to keep costs down while producing more bent parts every day.
Advantages of servo press brakes over conventional hydraulic Press brakes:
- Servo hybrid press brakes are fast and have very low electrical energy consumption
- Uses low heat to extend the life of the hydraulic components and oil
- Approach and return speeds of 200mm/sec
- Improved accuracy of +/- 0.005mm
- Do not create noise pollution
