Oilgear 60MN ODFP Energy Efficient Fast Forging Systems

In 2008, Oilgear Korea delivered a hydraulic drive and electrical control system to power a 6000T (60MN) Two Column Push Down Open Die Forging Press.
With a moving parts weight (WOP) of over 200 tonnes and a high pressure pipe column of over 28m, Oilgear was able to achieve a performance specification of over 150 strokes per minute with an accuracy variation of less than 1.0mm. The hydraulic drive utilized the high performance PVV540 pumps, with the famous Oilgear Towler Fast Forging Valve.
This performance was achieved whist achieving an energy saving of 10% per stroke (290kW of power) wih our unique FFV and ACR forging system.
The system exemplifies Oilgear Towlers commitment to our customers for custom engineering and turnkey solutions for Design, Engineering, Start-up Commissioning and After-Service Support. Oilgear was also responsible for the Rail-Bound Manipulator Integration
