ADVANCING CERAMIC FORMING: SERVO HYDRAULIC PRESSES FROM SUTHERLAND & KC PRESSES

Dec 10, 2025

A New Era in Ceramic Forming Technology

Ceramic manufacturing continues to evolve as industries demand tighter tolerances, improved density control, and cleaner compaction. Sutherland Presses and KC Presses are meeting those demands with next-generation Servo Hydraulic technology built specifically for dry pressing and advanced ceramic applications.

Precision Solutions for a High-Performance Industry

Manufacturers working with engineered powders and technical ceramics require accuracy beyond what traditional hydraulic or mechanical systems can offer. Servo Hydraulic systems from Sutherland & KC Presses deliver ultra-responsive motion, high repeatability, and superior forming outcomes across a wide range of ceramic products.

Why Servo Hydraulic Technology Leads the Future

Servo-driven systems offer a new level of refinement in ceramic forming, empowering operators with unmatched control. Key advantages include:

  • Ultra-precise pressure and speed control for density consistency
  • Closed-loop motion control for repeatable compaction profiles
  • Low energy consumption enabled by efficient servo actuation

Cleaner, Faster, and More Efficient Pressing

Compared to conventional hydraulic systems, Servo Hydraulic presses significantly reduce waste and improve workflow. They operate with lower heat, reduced noise, and ideal pressure ramps for technical ceramics, powders, and intricate geometries—while also delivering high-speed approach and optimized decompression cycles.

I-PRESS® Controls: Elevating Ceramic Production

The I-PRESS® control platform enhances every stage of ceramic forming with intelligent monitoring and automation-ready capability. Its features include:

  • Real-time tracking of pressure, position, and tonnage
  • Multi-stage press profiles tailored for advanced compaction
  • Integrated in-die automation for streamlined operations

Designed for Flexibility and Industry 4.0 Integration

Modern ceramic manufacturers require rapid changeovers and seamless digital connectivity. I-PRESS® enables recipe storage, fast setup, and full traceability throughout production. With Industry 4.0 compatibility, teams gain data insights that improve efficiency and ensure consistent part quality.

Tangible Benefits for Ceramic Producers

Sutherland & KC Presses deliver performance improvements that directly impact productivity and profitability:

  • Increased tool life
  • Greater density uniformity
  • Reduced scrap rates

Raising the Standard in Advanced Ceramic Forming

From electronic substrates to armor ceramics, cutting tools, and structural components, Servo Hydraulic technology paired with I-PRESS® controls is becoming the new benchmark for precision forming. Manufacturers gain the consistency and repeatability demanded by today’s complex ceramic applications.
