SUTHERLAND PRESSES AT FABTECH

Our servo hydraulic presses are the most flexible forming presses on the planet. It all starts with our I-PRESS® and automation control. I-PRESS® is built on a Rockwell AB hardware and software program and, then enhanced with our I-PRESS® logic & intuitive graphics package. When you connect our I-PRESS® control to the servo motors and pumps which control our fluid management systems, you get the ultimate in control, programmable motion and pressure profiles. Depending upon the job, one can expect up to 80%+ in energy savings compared to traditional hydraulic presses.

‍I-PRESS® & AUTOMATION 3 IN 1 MOBILE TRAINING CENTER

I-PRESS® automation has been growing in industry acceptance for over a decade.  We build and install them on all Sutherland & KC presses including, 1) mechanical presses, 2) servo hydraulic presses and 3) forge presses. The 3 in 1 mobile training center has all three versions of the control which can be selected on the entry screen. I-PRESS® is by far and away the most intuitive and easy to learn press and automation control available today. We extend an open invitation to come play and learn I-PRESS® at the Fabtech show.

I-PRESS® is now available for press upgrades and retrofits. With our cost efficient and vertically integrated panel build and install shops we can reduce cost for the end user. The system is software based, not firmware on chips. This allows us to provide what we call “feature sets” that other control companies call options. Feature sets can be turned on as needed when you choose to add features, such as quick die change, bar code scanners for job set up, auto slide adjust, auto air counterbalance and many more.

Package 1: 10” Panel View & Compact Guard Safety PLC

Package 2: 15” Panel View & Compact Guard Safety PLC

Both packages include I-PRESS® HMI & PLC software‍‍
