Hydraulic Presses
Standard Industrial is one of the last true U. S. machine manufacturers and we feel it is our honor and privilege to provide all of our customers with a quality built, dependable, precision machine that will make you proud to say that you “Bought American”. We stand behind our machines with the best 5-year warranty available on the market today. Our unmatched 5 Year warranty covers all hydraulic and electric components, plus all bearings and assemblies and the structural integrity of the press for 5 years. This warranty is a firm testament to the dependability of all Standard Industrial equipment.
Coupled with the warranty is a machine of unmatched rigidity. The typical Standard Industrial machine dominates a press room floor with its sheer size and obvious strength. We welcome comparisons by any other manufacturer and are happy to put all of our claims in writing and back them up with over thirty years of customer references.
Even beyond our substantial warranty, all components on the press will be available to you locally for a lifetime supply of parts. Standard Industrial goes to great lengths to engineer all machines with “non-special” components. This means that in 20 to 30 years or longer you can simply refer to your owners manual or the component itself, find that components original manufacturers part number, call your local supplier and get the part you need. Unlike most press manufacturers who force their customers to buy special made, overpriced components only from them, we give our customers a choice to buy locally or from us here at the factory. This means you are back in business in hours instead of days or weeks as is the case with most imported and even some domestic manufacturers. There is no such thing as an “orphan” Standard Industrial machine because you will always be able to find parts anywhere in the USA and the world.
This literature is an excellent tool to show how four different style of presses can best match your requirements. Each type of press is individually suited for certain applications and die set-up and should be adhered to. Please also feel free to contact us here at the factory and talk directly to the people who manufacture these machines. We would also like to invite you here to our facility in Clarksdale, MS so we can show you first hand how our machines are made.

- Center
- Off-Center
- Front to Back
- Left to Right
Model DC C-Frame Press:
The model DC C-Frame press is one of the most versatile presses we manufacture. It is designed to accept off-center and center loads as well as progressive die set ups for smaller bed applications. The DC is available in tonnages up to 600 tons and can be used for metalworking, plastics, fabrics and many other materials as well. Virtually any type of press application can be accomplished on a DC style press.
The model DC has an open gap frame and an extremely heavy duty box ram guided by 8 way gibbing. This combination is the most effective way to guide the ram and provide the precision most facilities require.
The ram is powered by a very efficient hydraulic power plant utilizing low pressure (under 3,000 psi) to guarantee long life of the system. This system powers the single machine tool quality cylinder shaft made of turned ground and polished chrome.
The model DC comes with all the standard features listed as well as our 5 year parts warranty and excellent service.

**For Punching Or Blanking applications De-Rate The Overall Press Tonnage By 1/3**
Loading Applications for the Model DCSS Straight Side Press:
Center/Off-Center/Front to Back and/or Left to Right loading
Built similarly to the DC style press, the DCSS takes yet another step toward providing the most frame strength available on any press on the market. The DCSS has enclosed end frames in lieu of the gap therefore allowing the least amount of deflection and the most rigidity. The operator can still however have material or die pass through with windows located in the end frames.
Built with the same hydraulic system and solid welded construction as the DC, the DCSS gives you another layer of strength for even the most punishing applications. Typically the bed and ram would stay within the frames, but optionally you can order the DCSS with ram and/or bed extensions to extend beyond the frames to give you even more die area.
The DCSS is also available up to 600 tons and is perfect for center load and off center loads left to right and/or front to back as well as virtually any other press application.
Model AM Straight Side Press:
The model AM straight side press is a more traditional style of straight side with much more left to right bed and ram area. The AM is able to hold tolerance left to right much better than a direct hydraulic design due to its bellcrank linkage that gives the press full tonnage from one end of the press to the other. This single cylinder design develops full tonnage anywhere along the bed left to right and front to back. The bellcrank linkage system is actuated with a single cylinder utilizing A660 bronze at the bearing points.
Model AM200-10
These bearings are Designed to withstand up to 6 times the machines overall tonnage and they are covered by our extensive 5 year parts warranty. The model AM is truly designed to accept virtually all forms of press applications whether it is punching, forming, blanking, coining, swedging, die tryout, trimming, drawing and so on.
