Hydraulic and Servo Press Uses

What can you do with a Beckwood Press?
Here are just a few food industry applications that we’ve designed for:

Punch food containers for the food service industry

Form metal kitchenware for food service utensils, bowls, sheets, and more
Clamp stainless steel bar coolers during insulated foam injection

Why Use a Servo Press for Food & Beverage Manufacturing 

Cleanliness

Servo-electric presses like EVOx™ use no hydraulic fluid, making them an excellent alternative to traditional hydraulic press machinery in food-grade applications. Where hygiene is imperative, the use of a servo-electric press eliminates the risk of contamination due to hydraulic leaks.

Efficiency

A servo press also uses less energy for increased production efficiency, and requires far less maintenance than its hydraulic counterpart to maximize uptime.

Traceability

Our advanced servo-electric press system gives users the ability to track each individual press cycle. This allows them to ensure the highest possible level of quality control in manufacturing parts for food and beverage applications.
