PM Clutch Hub Press
PM Clutch Hub Press — Capacity Specifications, Platen Envelope & Tooling Details
The PM Clutch Hub Press (Reference HSE-189) by HEMSUN ENGG. INDUSTRIES is built for high-performance compaction of automotive friction clutch facings. Features rigid platen guidance, variable-displacement hydraulics, and CMM-inspected tooling for OEM factories.
Applications
- Serial compaction and forming of automotive friction clutch facings for industrial processors (Workstation Ref: APP-6489).
- Integrated die-set tooling for automotive friction clutch facings with automated powder cavity charging and synchronized bottom ejection.
- Programmable density management on thermoset-friction compounds with controlled pressure dwell cycles from 44s to 6min.
- Export-compliant production line equipped with multi-voltage electrical cabinet (380V/60Hz) and complete FAT documentation.
How this press is built
Fabricated for heavy industrial service, the PM Clutch Hub Press applies 510 Ton of precision force to mould automotive friction clutch facings measuring Platen working area 619 × 619 mm with dual electric heating. The machine executes automated fast approach, slow pressing transition, and a 38-second dwell interval to achieve high green density. Controlled release of hydraulic cylinder pressure eliminates internal micro-fractures, facilitating effortless ejection of the finished green compact.
Material behaviour under compaction
Configured for thermoset compounds (SMC/BMC/bakelite) & friction mix powders processing, the press delivers synchronized compaction that eliminates density gradients. Rigid bolster plates resist deflection, allowing preforms to process uniformly without axial distortion.
Tooling and die design
The platen working area incorporates CNC-machined clamping slots and precision ejector guide holes. Induction-hardened and ground tie-bars with self-lubricating bronze bushings maintain sub-millimeter die alignment during high-speed production of automotive friction clutch facings.
Sizing and machine selection
Sizing a PM Clutch Hub Press installation involves calculating the required pressing tonnage (510 Ton baseline) based on part cross-sectional area and material grade. Submit component STEP models and production shift volume to our engineering team for customized machine and die proposals.
Quality checks and inspection
Our manufacturing team validates every machine through comprehensive FAT runs: continuous 8-hour pressure dwell cycling, platen deflection laser profilometry, and test pressing of customer-specified sample parts.
Installation and commissioning
Our commissioning scope includes complete circuit drawings, foundation plans, and spare seal sets. Factory engineers handle on-site installation, hydraulic startup, and comprehensive operator training.
Export packing and lead time
Built for global export from India, the PM Clutch Hub Press is wired with multi-voltage electrical configurations (380V–480V / 60Hz 3-Phase) and equipped with CE-compliant optical light curtains. Machines are packaged with VCI anti-corrosion barrier wrapping inside seaworthy wooden crates for secure container shipping from Mundra or Nhava Sheva ports.
Maintenance and spare parts
Service procedures include periodic hydraulic oil filtering, daily bronze bushing lubrication, and annual hydraulic cylinder inspection. Factory-backed replacement seal sets are maintained in stock.
Safety and guarding
Integrated safety architecture includes multi-beam light curtains, two-hand ergonomic start buttons, hydraulic counter-balance anti-drop valves, and immediate-response emergency stop actuators on the operator console.
