During the growth phase of industrial facilities, one of the most challenging levels reached by sheet forming and mold cutting operations is undoubtedly the 150-ton pressing barrier. Incorporating a massive heavy industry press machine into your machinery park directly determines not only your production volume but also the prestige of your business and the scale of heavy-duty tenders you can enter. One of the most robust and long-lasting actors of this league of giants, the 150-ton eccentric press models are the pinnacle of Karmaksan Machine engineering.

Since 1988, we have been offering Turkish industrialists not just a pile of iron, but smart systems that will continuously produce value for years. In areas requiring high strength, such as automotive main chassis parts, industrial tube-tank manufacturing, white goods bodies, and heavy agricultural machinery spare parts, the steel forging presses and sheet forming machines we design exhibit an unrivaled performance.

Vibration-Defying Chassis: Heavy-Duty C-Frame Body

The impact of a massive 150-ton force hitting the mold multiple times a second creates a stress on the floor and the machine body that is difficult to measure. Low-budget cast iron machines on the market cannot absorb the "shock waves" experienced at these tonnages, and over time, irreparable breaks occur in the body. The biggest difference of Karmaksan quality is that we build all our 150-ton productions using solid steel plates (ST-52), whose tension has been relieved in special furnaces, under heavy-duty C-frame press norms.

Furthermore, depending on customer demand and the dimensions of the mold to be attached, we also manufacture "H-Frame" (closed body) steel constructions that mathematically reduce flexing to zero. This unshakeable body architecture, especially when working with deep drawing molds that require the sheet to stretch without tearing, reduces mold wear by 40%, offering you flawless product geometry.

For Large Molds: Double Pitman Power Distribution

In 150-ton presses with a wide working table, delivering power from a single center (a single connecting rod) causes pressure loss toward the corners of the mold. This situation leads to the axial shifting (offset) of the ram in long progressive molds and incorrect pressing of the parts. Solving this problem from the root, Karmaksan engineering distributes the 150-ton power over the mold from two different points in perfect parallelism by using a double pitman heavy press infrastructure for a massive power like 150 tons.

The eccentric (crank) shaft, which is the heart of the system, is produced from Turkey's most durable steel alloys, processed with micron precision on grinding machines, and coupled to the pneumatic hydraulic clutch system. This geared (reducer) transmission mechanism prevents the motor from stalling, producing maximum torque even in the most demanding thick sheet cutting operations.

Unforgiving Technology: Hydraulic Overload Fuse

A jam caused by the operator or the mold in a 150-ton machine is a major disaster that leads to the crank breaking or the body exploding in traditional machines. However, in our machines, the mold overload fuse (hydraulic fuse) system, which has ceased to be an optional equipment and become standard, is present.

The hydraulic cushions inside the ram are protected by instantaneous sensors against pressure. In the event of a jam, the moment the pressure exceeds 150 tons, the fuse blows (discharges the oil) in the first millisecond, and the machine goes into neutral. Thanks to this system, your press and molds worth millions of liras are 100% protected. It only takes minutes to fix the malfunction and put the machine back into production.

Industry 4.0 Compliance and PLC Automation

The era of manually (by hand) feeding sheet metal to giant machines is over. To operate a 150-ton production giant at full capacity, we equip it with smart systems:

• Fully Integrated PLC Screen: A smart automation brain where stroke speed, mold memory, fault notifications, and maintenance schedules are managed from a single touch screen.
• Servo Driver Synchronization: Our PLC automated press infrastructure operates continuously in perfect synchronization with coil unwinders and servo drivers in your factory in milliseconds.
• Advanced Ram Balance Cylinders: It extends the life of the motor and brake system by pneumatically (air cushion) balancing the load placed on the ram by heavy upper mold parts.
• Central and Automatic Lubrication: Continuously lubricates the guides, heavy bearings, and cranks of the machine in a dosed and pressurized manner without leaving it to the operator's initiative.

Heavy Machine Revision and Facility Renewal

Buying a brand new high-tonnage machine may not be easy for every business. However, if you have an old heavy press with a mechanical clutch that sits idle in your factory and fails to meet occupational safety (CE) standards, we would like to remind you that as Karmaksan Machine, we are one of the most reliable press revision companies in the industry.

We recreate your old mechanical giants from scratch with the expert staff of our factory. We renew all worn bearings and bronze parts, and integrate current pneumatic clutch and hydraulic fuse equipment into your old workbench. The machine returning to your factory transforms not just into a painted pile of iron, but into a smart production facility bearing all the technological features of a zero-press.
