Press for production of a molded part and method for changing a die on a press
A press for producing a molded part from pourable material has an apparatus for driving a die that includes a cylinder unit having a cylinder housing and having a cylinder piston. The cylinder housing is the actuator of the cylinder unit and the cylinder piston is the stator of the cylinder unit.
1. Press for production of a molded part from a pourable material, having an interchangeable adapter comprising a pressing unit for accommodating a die, comprising a vertical drive for the interchangeable adapter, having a device for raising and/or lowering the interchangeable adapter, wherein the raising and/or lowering device is disposed on the underside of the interchangeable adapter.
2. Press according to claim 1 , wherein the raising and/or lowering device for the interchangeable adapter comprises at least one hydraulic cylinder and four hydraulic track cylinders.
3. Press according to claim 2 , wherein the hydraulic adapter clamping cylinder and the hydraulic track cylinders are disposed oriented essentially parallel to one another, wherein the hydraulic adapter clamping cylinder moves the interchangeable adapter counter to the direction of effect of the hydraulic track cylinders.
4. Press according to claim 1 , wherein a hydraulic adapter clamping cylinder of the vertical drive is disposed essentially centered underneath the interchangeable adapter.
5. Press according to claim 1 , wherein a hydraulic adapter clamping cylinder of the vertical drive is disposed in a machine table of the press.
6. Press according to claim 1 , wherein the interchangeable adapter has an accommodation for a clamp of a hydraulic adapter clamping cylinder of the vertical drive on its underside.
7. Press according to claim 1 , wherein the vertical drive comprises a height level regulation with a track rail that can be counter-sunk.
8. Press according to claim 7 , wherein the track rail that can be counter-sunk at least partly surrounds a machine table of the pressing unit.
9. Press according to claim 1 , wherein the vertical drive has a vertical support for guiding the interchangeable adapter, which is different from a machine table of the press.
10. Press according to claim 1 , further comprising a hydraulic coupling having an adapter-side coupling part, having a press-side coupling part, and having a device for coupling the two coupling parts, in which the adapter-side coupling part is displaceable with regard to the press-side coupling part, at least vertically, and in which the press-side coupling part has an additional fixed vertical support for the interchangeable adapter, next to the machine table.
11. Press according to claim 10 , wherein the coupling device comprises not only coupling elements that are fixed in place, but also movable coupling elements.
12. Press according to claim 11 , wherein the movable coupling elements comprise at least one automatic coupling.
13. Press according to claim 11 , wherein the coupling elements that are fixed in place comprise centering pins for centering the interchangeable adapter with regard to the vertical support that is fixed in place.
14. Press according to claim 10 , wherein the hydraulic coupling comprises a horizontal stop for horizontal guidance of the interchangeable adapter.
15. Press according to claim 10 , wherein the hydraulic coupling comprises at least one hydraulic cylinder for vertical displacement of the interchangeable adapter with regard to the machine table of the pressing unit, wherein the hydraulic cylinder comprises an adapter clamping cylinder for vertical clamping of the interchangeable adapter.
16. Press according to claim 1 , further comprising indexing or positioning bolts for guiding the interchangeable adapter with regard to a machine table of the pressing unit.
17. Press according to claim 2 , wherein the at least one hydraulic cylinder comprises a hydraulic adapter clamping cylinder.
