    1. Press Operation Overview

    • AIRAM units are pneumatically operated, offering faster ram velocities than mechanical or hydraulic systems.

    • Infinitely adjustable stroke length.

    • Compatible with tooling systems requiring rapid, short-stroke action.

    2. Model Configurations and Flexibility

    • Models range from 3 to 100 tons.

    • Available in two-post or four-post die sets with flat undersides—ideal for automated processing integration.

    • Low-profile designs suit stand-mounted and unconventional mounting.

    3. Application Versatility

    • Best suited for:

      • Steel rule die cutting

      • Laminating

      • Shallow embossing

      • Thin section blanking

      • Strippit tooling

      • Roll forming & cut-to-length lines

    4. Tonnage Definitions and Selection Guidance

    • Holding (Stall) Tonnage vs Impact Tonnage:

      • Holding Tonnage is the force during pressing—always relevant.

      • Impact Tonnage is often misunderstood and should not be over-relied on except for coining, stenciling, and embossing.

    • Helps you select a press based on the actual energy required for your process—avoiding over-sizing or incorrect assumptions.

    5. Combination Variables

    • AIRAM allows for selection based on:

      • Force-to-bed ratio

      • Actuator tube sizing

      • Light tonnage on large bed areas—great for roll formers, progressive dies, and automation cells.
