Hydraulic System

The TMP press Hydraulic System is a proven for its efficiency and long-term reliability. These hydraulics combined with TMP's advanced controls provide press control, accuracy and flexibility unmatched in the industry. The system includes:

TMP Advanced Controls Systems

TMP offers two standard Controls packages for molding rubber and silicone. The BPS Control Package, although basic, provides programmable control of pressures, times, allowing for bump cycles, and platen temperature control. It includes a microprocessor and an LCD display to enter recipes and compare actual process values to pre-programmed settings.

The industry's most versatile system is the TMP CPS Compression (Vacuum) Press Control System. This is a PLC-based system designed to improve product quality through better pressing accuracy, repeatability, versatile process control programming and monitoring of data for analysis. Components of the system include:

Combined with electronic proportional valving and linear displacement transducers, control of compression rates and/or velocities, as well as pressures and times, is attainable through the operator interface.
