What 1600 Ton Capacity Means in Practice
Heavy automotive forgings
The 1600-ton class covers larger automotive components: truck crankshafts, large connecting rods, axle beams and transmission housings. Table sizes on machines in this class (1200×1400 mm and above) fit multi-cavity die sets for series production.
Energy and pipeline flanges
Large-diameter flanges for oil and gas pipelines, pressure vessels and power generation equipment are within this capacity range. At 1600 tons, the press handles forgings in the 10–40 kg range in standard carbon and alloy steels.
Railway and heavy equipment
Railway wheel centres, bogie components and drivetrain parts for heavy construction equipment are within range at this capacity.
Precision cold work at high force
A 1600-ton knuckle joint press handles coining and calibration of large forgings that need tight dimensional tolerances after hot forging. The short stroke and high BDC force give it the edge when accuracy matters more than cycle rate.
Two Machine Types at 1600 Ton
The two 1600-ton machines we offer serve different production processes. The TMP Voronezh K8542 is a mechanical hot forging press with a 300 mm stroke and a 940×1200 mm bolster table, running at 75 strokes per minute; it weighs 120 tons, built for series production of large automotive and industrial forgings in heated closed dies. The Agostino Colombo G1600 is a knuckle joint press with a 135 mm stroke and a 1060×900 mm bolster, built for cold forging, coining, sizing and calibration where precision at the bottom of the stroke matters more than stroke length. The process decides: hot forging line or cold precision work.
Transport and Installation at 1600 Ton
Machine weight
A 1600-ton hot forging press of the TMP Voronezh type weighs approximately 120 tons. Transport requires disassembly into main components: crown, uprights, slide, flywheel and drive package, each shipped separately on heavy flatbeds.
Permits and routing
At this scale, individual components typically exceed standard EU road limits on their own, so oversized transport permits are part of the project plan from the start. The transport company runs a route survey before the first component moves.
Foundation
A 120-ton press at this capacity needs a purpose-designed concrete foundation, typically 2–4 m deep with mass concrete and vibration-damping elements. Foundation design is based on the manufacturer's drawing, which TRIGA provides for all machines we offer.
What to Check at Inspection
Frame integrity
At 120 tons of machine weight, a structural defect in the frame has serious safety and repair-cost consequences. Request magnetic particle or dye penetrant test records if available. If not, arrange a qualified structural inspection before purchase.
Main shaft and eccentric
Bearing clearances on a machine this size affect stroke accuracy and die alignment. Measure radial play in the main shaft bearings and compare against the manufacturer's specification.
Clutch and brake system
At this force level, the clutch and brake are safety-critical components. Verify disc condition, operating pressure and brake response time. On TMP Voronezh machines, clutch disc wear is the most common maintenance item at this age.
Hydraulic overload protection
Machines of this class include hydraulic overload protection as standard. Test that it trips at the correct pressure and resets. A non-functional overload system is a disqualifying defect on a press of this size.
Flywheel and drive train
Inspect keyway fit, flywheel bearing condition and drive belt or gear train for signs of fatigue or misalignment. On a machine that has been idle, check for corrosion on the flywheel shaft and drive gear teeth.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
The 1600-ton class handles larger automotive parts (truck crankshafts, axle beams, large connecting rods), flanges for oil and gas pipelines, railway components and heavy industrial forgings in the 10–40 kg range. Knuckle joint presses in this class handle coining, calibration and cold forging of large parts requiring tight tolerances.
Both are 1600-ton presses but different machine types. The K8542 is a mechanical hot forging press with a 300 mm stroke and a 940×1200 mm table, built for series hot forging in closed dies. The Colombo G1600 is a knuckle joint press with a 135 mm stroke, built for cold forging, coining and calibration. The choice depends on the production process.
The TMP Voronezh K8542 weighs approximately 120 tons. Transport requires disassembly of the machine into its main components, each shipped separately on heavy flatbeds. TRIGA coordinates the full dismantling and logistics scope.
We arrange physical inspection at the storage location for every machine we offer. Running the press under power depends on the electrical connection at the site. Contact us to confirm the machine's status and arrange a visit.
You need a purpose-designed concrete foundation, typically 2–4 m deep with mass concrete and vibration-damping elements. The exact specification depends on the machine model and soil conditions at your site. TRIGA provides the original manufacturer's foundation drawing for all machines we offer.
