The change of press dies more and more is done by die change carts, especially in case of big and heavy press dies. This development is caused by reason of requested work safety during die change, possible time savings, and repeatability of work process, availability of overhead crane or forklift truck as well as specific space conditions at site.

To change press dies without support by Die Lifters with rolls needs, depending on the weight of the press die, very strong forces. Thereby already the change of smaller press dies by the operator is a show of strength. To change bigger press dies without support by Die Lifters with rolls or balls is nearly impossible.
Die Lifters with Balls allow a multi-directional movement of the die and give the bestpossible manoeuvrability. Caused by their smaller load capacity as well as their punctual contact to the press die (increased wear at the bearing surface at the bottom side of the press die) they normally are used in case of smaller die weight only.Read More >>

Stationary Die Change Tables manually and with Die Mover (motorized)
Stationary Die Change Tables usually are installed at the rear side of the press and are designed as a T-shape.
this type of construction allows the operator to deliver the next press die earlier, whilst the the old press die still is working within the press.
As soon as the old die is pulled out of the press and pushed onto the free side of the T-shaped Die Change Table, the new prepared die can be moved sidewards up to the front of the press table. After that it can be pushed into the press immeadiatly.
