The Unipres Press Maintenance team have made history by completing a full service transfer upgrade of the 3000 Tonne Press in partnership with AIDA Europe.

The Press Maintenance team conducted the disassembly stage and assisted with the installation of the system both Electrically and Mechanically.

The existing transfer was becoming obsolete which lended itself for an opportunity to both improve Strokes Per Minute and energy usage by allowing us to improve the standard motion curves.

Mick Morris, Deputy General Manager of Press Maintenance said: “Well done to our maintenance team for their hard work, team effort and vison on this project from inception to completion.”

AIDA is a global leader in the design, manufacture, sale, service, support, refurbishment and modernization of metal stamping presses and metal forming automation equipment.
