PRECISION BENCHTOP PNEUMATIC PRESS PRODUCTS

Joraco Press Company manufactures pneumatic presses for industrial applications. They can be manually operated safely using our SYNCHRO-SIG™ Two Hand, Anti-Tie Down Controller or set up in an automated line complete with a PLC, or valved PLC-ready for integration into an existing line. Our benchtop air presses can be quoted with custom dimensions to accommodate a specific open height, throat and/or stroke as well as custom bolster plate measurements and hole patterns. Die Sets, flange adapters, and various custom features are all quoted upon request. Our engineering team is available to recommend the press type best suited for your application needs.

How to Choose a Press Model

Even if you are a manufacturing veteran, it may be hard to know what style press you need and how much force your application requires. Our engineers are always available to help you, but you can start with this simple chart to show you around our product line.

TOGGLE-AIRE® Series
DIRECT-AIRE® Series
HYDRO-AIRE™ Series
INDEX-AIRE™ Series
  • For applications where pressing to a fixed dimension and precision is more important than total force
  • Rated Force is the amount of total force available if needed, not the actual force being used throughout the stroke
  • Ideal for tooling that requires a die set and in automated set ups such as feeders and indexers
  • Best for low force application requiring a long stroke and constant pressure
  • Allows for multiple configurations, unlimited customization, and various ram control options
  • Low cost point of entry and easily upgradeable
  • When you need more force than a standard air press, but want to avoid large, messy hydraulic systems or expensive, complicated servo systems
  • Provides a power stroke at any point in the ram advance due to automatic sequence valving
  • Can be up and running with an air line in minutes, not days or weeks
  • For applications that require high volume output of small to medium sized parts
  • Allows full and semi- autonomous operation 
  • Ability to integrate any TOGGLE-AIRE®, DIRECT-AIRE®, or HYDRO-AIRE™ press model with a multi-station rotary indexer

TOGGLE-AIRE

TOGGLE-AIRE® Series Pneumatic Toggle Presses

Joraco Press Company TOGGLE-AIRE® Series pneumatic toggle presses combine the mechanical advantages of levers and toggles. Forces produced don’t rely on ram impact; rather, it builds as the ram reaches the bottom of the stroke, and effects a shockless, powerful squeeze, regardless of ram speed. Additionally, it is highly efficient- a TOGGLE-AIRE® Series Model 1030 press is 300% more powerful than a comparable cylinder-sized DIRECT-AIRE® Series press, yet only 58% of the air is needed. Most importantly, the stroke is very precise with +/-.001” repeatability.

DIRECT-AIRE

DIRECT-AIRE® Series Pneumatic Presses

Joraco Press Company DIRECT-AIRE® Series presses feature a straight pneumatic cylinder for applications requiring full force over the entire 4.5” stroke. They are suitable for a wide range of manual and semi-automatic operations up to 5 Tons of constant force, in either a C-Frame or H-Frame configuration. Known for their efficiency, economy, and customizability, the DIRECT-AIRE® Series is an air-actuated workhorse for many industries and applications.

HYDRO-AIRE

HYDRO-AIRE™ Series Hydro-Pneumatic Presses

Joraco Press Company HYDRO-AIRE™ Series presses offer clean, reliable, and accurate results. This Hydro-Pneumatic (HP) Press Series is a much cleaner alternative to a hydraulic press and offers the same advantages. It is fully contained with no fluid reservoirs or hydraulic lines, and features rapid advance with automatic power stroke. Suitable for a wide range of manual and semi-automatic assembly operations, this press is offered with a standard 4” stroke with 1/2″ power stroke, providing from 2 to 16-tons of force, in both C-Frame and H-Frame Configurations. Manufactured in the USA from steel plate.

 

INDEX-AIRE

INDEX-AIRE™ Series Rotary Indexing Machines

Joraco Press Company INDEX-AIRE™ Series rotary indexing press machines offer versatile, efficient, and simple automatic operation in small areas. The INDEX-AIRE™ Series Model 2000 is an air-actuated all-in-one press and rotary indexing combo with six (6) stations that is based on our TOGGLE-AIRE® Series Model 1030 or Model 1530 toggle press. For larger and more specific applications, the INDEX-AIRE™ Series Model 1011RT is customizable from 4 to 24 servo-actuated stations and can be equipped with one or more C-Frame TOGGLE-AIRE®, DIRECT-AIRE®, and/or HYDRO-AIRE™ Series presses. All INDEX-AIRE™ rotary indexing machines can be customized to specific applications and needs including interchangeable tool plates, as well as the addition of many styles of automation components.

Pneumatic Rotary Indexing Machine

INDEX-AIRE™ Series Model 2000

The INDEX-AIRE™ Series Model 2000 rotary indexing press machine is an extremely compact rotary indexing machine, requiring no more bench space than our 3 Ton toggle press. It features solid, one piece construction, with the indexing unit built into the machined steel mainframe of the press. The index feed utilizes a specially designed, air driven clutch made of heat treated machine steel, to provide smooth, powerful indexing.

A hardened, cam-actuated locking pin accurately locates the six stations and locks them in while the press is cycling. The entire indexing mechanism features high performance, self lubricating, composite bearings. These bearings are designed to handle loads far greater than those encountered in the Model 2000, and have excellent resistance to shock and wear. Because the Model 2000 is completely free standing it does not require special base plates or tables.
