**Press automation** refers to the use of automated systems—like robots, feeders, transfer mechanisms, and control systems—to streamline and automate press operations (mechanical, hydraulic, or servo presses). It’s widely used in sheet metal forming, stamping, and die operations across automotive, appliance, electronics, and other manufacturing sectors.
Features of Press Automation Systems
Automatic Feeding Systems
1. Coil feeders, servo roll feeders, or air feeders for continuous part supply
Robotic Arms / Gantry Loaders
1. Load and unload parts from the press bed
Die Handling Automation
1. Die changers, clamps, and lifters for quick tool changeovers
Transfer Systems
1. 2D or 3D transfer mechanisms to move parts between stages
