Used Hydraulic Presses for Sale
Heavy hydraulic presses from 200 to 2000 ton — Dnepropress, Galdabini, ILR and Schuler — sourced from industrial plants in Poland and Central Europe. Available for on-site inspection and worldwide export.
What to Check Before Buying a Used Hydraulic Press
Cylinder seals and rams
Inspect all cylinder bores for scoring and pitting. Seal replacement is routine, but a scored bore requires regrinding or sleeving — factor this into the purchase price negotiation.
Hydraulic power unit
Check pump wear by measuring relief valve cracking pressure against the nameplate rating. A worn pump cannot sustain rated tonnage under continuous load.
Control valves
Run the press through a full stroke cycle at reduced pressure. Valve spools should shift cleanly without hesitation or hunting; sticky valves indicate wear or hydraulic contamination.
Frame and tie rods
Hydraulic presses apply sustained force rather than impact. Inspect tie rods for elongation and check the frame for distortion, particularly on older 4-column designs.
Safety and pressure systems
Verify pressure relief settings, pressure switches and emergency stop function before any test run. Confirm CE compliance requirements for the destination country.
Why Source a Used Hydraulic Press from Poland
Soviet hydraulic presses (Dnepropress, Pischevikh) and European machines (Galdabini, ILR, Schuler, Lasco) from Polish industrial stocks often carry full technical records. EU-sourced machines often carry available technical documentation. Hydraulic presses provide controlled tonnage and adjustable ram speed, making them suitable for isothermal forging, coining, calibration and hot forming of aluminium and titanium alloys where mechanical presses would be too imprecise.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Power connection availability depends on the storage site. Contact us to confirm for a specific machine; we can arrange hydraulic function tests under pressure for most units.
Heavy hydraulic presses (500 ton and above) typically require 6–10 weeks from contract signing to delivery. This covers logistics planning, crane hire, route survey for oversized loads and customs documentation. Contact us for a detailed transport assessment based on the specific machine weight and your destination.
Hydraulic components — pumps, valves, seals and cylinders — are generally available as generic equivalents from standard suppliers. We can advise on sourcing for specific machines on request.
Yes. A hydraulic forging press provides controlled tonnage and adjustable ram speed, making it suitable for isothermal forging, hot aluminium forming, coining and calibration operations.
Yes. We ship to Turkey, India, the Middle East and the Americas. TRIGA handles transport logistics and provides the machine data needed for customs documentation and HS code classification; your customs broker or forwarder files the declarations.
