Hydraulic Straightening Press

The workpiece or the part is manually loaded into the Straightening Press. The part is clamped at centers (or rollers) and than rotated to measure the straightening by using dial indicators. When the upper point is rotated vertically, the lever is pressed down causing the part to flex. After each and every stroke, dial indicator shows the straightness of the part so that operator can alter the depth of stroke until the straightness is within tolerance range. Repetition of the process occurs at determined points to achieve the specified straightness or TIR (Total Indicated Runout).
