Your Reliable Solution Partner in Eccentric Servo Drive Press Technology: ALES PRES

Servo Drive Press are the new standard for businesses seeking speed, flexibility, and quality in production. Unlike traditional crank systems, servo drive press are driven by servo motors, allowing programmable control of die movements. This means lower error rates, longer die life, and better energy efficiency.

Advantages of Servo Drive Presses | Why Should You Use a Servo Drive Press?

  1. Programmable Slide Motion

With servo presses, parameters like downstroke speed, upstroke speed, and dwell time can be defined through software. This flexibility ensures even complex parts can be formed with minimal deformation.

  1. Energy Efficiency

Unlike traditional presses with continuously running motors, servo motors consume energy only when needed. This can reduce annual energy costs by up to 30%.

  1. High Precision – Low Scrap

Servo motor control offers positioning accuracy of ±0.01 mm. This consistency reduces part variations and significantly lowers scrap rates.

  1. Longer Die Life

Smooth acceleration and deceleration reduce impact forces on dies, which lowers maintenance needs and costs.

Where Are Servo Drive Press Used? | Application Areas

  • Servo Drive Press offer versatile usage in various industries
  • Automotive Industry: Production of body parts and precision components
  • White Goods Sector: Cutting and bending of thin sheets
  • Electronics Manufacturing: Pressing operations requiring millimetric precision
  • Progressive Dies: High-efficiency, automated production lines

Is Investing in a Servo Drive Press Profitable? | Cost vs. Performance Analysis

Although the initial investment may seem high, servo presses quickly pay off thanks to their many advantages. Energy savings, lower maintenance costs, reduced scrap, and faster production cycles allow the system to amortize itself in a short time.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  1. What is a Servo Drive Press and how does it work?

A servo press is a modern type of press that uses a servo motor and encoder instead of a crankshaft. The servo motor controls the ram movement. You can program its speed and position very precisely with a control unit (PLC). This allows flexible movements, not fixed like old presses.

  1. What is the difference between a Servo Drive Press and an Eccentric Press?

In eccentric presses, the ram speed is fixed and moves in a wave shape. In servo presses, you can adjust the speed, stop time, and return speed separately. This gives better forming quality and efficiency.

  1. What are the advantages of a Servo Drive Press?
  • Very precise movement control (up to ±0.01 mm)
  • Saves energy, only uses power when pressing
  • Custom stroke profiles for each die
  • Less noise and vibration
  • Can analyze force feedback during pressing
  1. Where is the Servo Drive Press used?
  • Automotive: body panels, strong parts
  • Electronics: thin sheets, precise bending
  • Home appliances: deep drawing, sheet forming
  • Defense industry: precise component forming
  • It works well with progressive dies, transfer systems, and robots.
  1. What is the return on investment (ROI) time for a Servo Drive Press?

It takes about 12 to 36 months to get back your investment. Energy use can drop by 30-50%, scrap can reduce by 40%, and die life can increase by 50%.

  1. Is maintenance of a Servo Drive Press difficult?

No. Servo presses have fewer mechanical parts and need less lubrication. Yearly checks are usually enough.

  1. Can you change dies during production with a Servo Drive Press?

Yes. Servo presses store die profiles. After changing the die, the press adjusts automatically. This saves time.

  1. Does a Servo Drive Press use PLC or special software?

Yes. It uses industrial PLCs. ALES Pres also provides a special user interface to control profiles, production data, and errors.

  1. Can you monitor data and production on a Servo Drive Press?

Yes. It can be connected to SCADA systems and track real-time data (hits, time, energy, force). It also works with ERP systems.

  1. What information is needed to order a Servo Drive Press?
  • Part drawing and material info
  • Quantity and cycle time
  • Die type (single hit, progressive, transfer)
  • Stroke length, table size, tonnage
  • Automation needs
  1. Can you adjust the dwell time at the bottom dead center (BDC)?

Yes. This is very important for deep drawing and forming tasks.

  1. Does a Servo Drive Press have regenerative braking?

Yes. The energy from braking can be reused or sent back to the power grid.

  1. Does the accuracy of a Servo Drive Press decrease over time?

Not easily, but periodic maintenance and calibration are needed due to external factors like vibration or temperature.

  1. Can you do hot forming with a Servo Drive Press?

Yes, with proper heating systems and resistant components, especially used in automotive applications.

  1. What is the emergency stop time for a Servo Drive Press?

It stops faster than mechanical presses because it directly cuts motor power, but the exact time depends on machine size and load.

  1. Can you change speed profiles during production?

Yes. Operators can adjust the ram speed in real-time for different steps of production.

  1. Which communication protocols does a Servo Drive Press use?

It communicates using Ethernet, Profinet, and industrial communication protocols.

  1. Can you operate a Servo Drive Press manually if the motor fails?

No. If the servo motor fails, it requires technical service. Manual use is not possible.

  1. The press is very quiet. Is it broken?

No. This is normal. Servo presses are quiet. If it makes unusual noise, then there might be a problem.

  1. Can a Servo Drive Press be used for forging?

No. It presses gently but effectively. Forging needs hydraulic or hot forging presses.

  1. Can we use our old dies with a Servo Drive Press?

Yes, but to get the benefits of a servo press, dies should be optimized for it. Otherwise, it works like an expensive old press.

  1. If Servo Drive Press is so good, why do people still use Eccentric Presses?

Because servo presses are more expensive at first. Eccentric presses are still cheaper for simple, high-volume production.

  1. Can every job be done with a Servo Drive Press?

Not every job. But for precise forming, bending, and special dies, servo presses are one of the best solutions. Die design and material must be suitable.
