Every Kenco press is engineered with four principles in mind:

High Quality: Kenco presses are made of industry proven materials and components that meet or exceed applicable industry standards [OSHA and/or ANSI].

Modular Design: Kenco presses are compact and can be easily integrated into automated manufacturing cells.

Easy to Use & Maintain: Kenco presses are designed for easy set-up and operation, and require little maintenance.

Value Priced: Kenco presses offer durability, quality, and performance to provide years of trouble free production - making them the long-term economical choice in press equipment. Popular features come standard, with other features available as options with a pre-designed installation method.

Critical performance features include:

Rugged Frame Design:
Kenco press frames are developed using computer-aided design tools. Made from cast iron or high strength steel, they offer exceptional rigidity to minimize deflection. This results in increased tool life and permits high precision production. The C-frame design provides large throat depths and bed sizes for accepting larger die sets, and offers easy access for material feeding.

Precision Machinined Crankshaft and Bearings:
Crankshafts are machined to exceedingly close tolerances and main crank bearing housings are precision line bored. Main crank bearings and bearing surfaces are ground to exacting specifications. All of which ensures a long life of consitent performance.

Reliable Low Maintenance Performance:
Kenco's roller clutch is made of heat-treated, high strength steel alloy. During the manufacturing process, it is precision ground to ensure smooth and even load distribution, which provides long, trouble free service life.

Our air activated clutch and disc brake equipped presses ensure fast smooth operation for high speed or hands-in-die applications.

Accuracy and Repeatability:
Extra long rams with full 90° "V" ways maintain true tooling alignment and guidance for longer tool life and high quality parts.

Dual Roller Bearing Flywheel:
Kenco press flywheels are computer designed for optimum weight distribution. The dual roller bearings provide two support points on the crankshaft, which increases stability. Sealed to prevent dirt penetration, these bearings maintain lubrication longer and produce less friction than standard bearings.
