Custom-Designed Presses for Sheet Metal and Other Applications
The design of industrial presses requires a precise balance of structural strength, performance, and durability. Whether for sheet metal forming or applications in other sectors, every press must be engineered to withstand high forces while ensuring reliability and efficiency.
At Altamax, all press designs are developed using advanced Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations to validate structural integrity and optimize performance under real-world conditions. FEM analysis allows for precise evaluation of stress distribution, deformations, and fatigue resistance, ensuring a long lifespan and consistent results in industrial production.
Preferred CAD Tools and Flexible Design Approach
Press design is primarily carried out using SolidWorks and Creo, two of the most powerful CAD tools for mechanical engineering. These platforms enable:
- 3D modeling of press components with high precision
- Kinematic and dynamic simulations to optimize movements
- Structural verification through integrated FEM tools
In addition, our team has expertise in other CAD software, allowing us to adapt to different client preferences and technical requirements.
Applications Beyond Sheet Metal Forming
While metal sheet deformation is one of the main application areas, the presses designed by Altamax also serve industries such as:
- Automotive – for body panel stamping and structural components
- Aerospace – for precision forming of lightweight, high-strength materials
- Electronics – for the production of casings and intricate metal enclosures
- Energy sector – for pressing components used in power generation and storage
Tailored Solutions for Every Requirement
Each press is designed from scratch based on specific customer needs, ensuring custom-built solutions that maximize efficiency and performance. The integration of FEM analysis from the early design stages guarantees that each machine meets the highest standards in safety, precision, and durability.
For companies looking for a highly engineered, simulation-driven approach to press design, Altamax provides a comprehensive solution combining cutting-edge CAD modeling with industry-leading FEM analysis.
