Servo hydraulic presses are advanced machines designed to deliver precise control of force, speed, and position through closed-loop servo systems. By integrating servo motors and intelligent hydraulic control, these presses provide high accuracy, repeatability, and energy efficiency compared to conventional hydraulic presses. Their robust construction ensures stable performance, making them suitable for continuous industrial operation as well as precision laboratory environments.

Interlaken Technology has been designing and manufacturing exclusive hydroforming systems for over 20 years. From a 50 Ton hydroforming press for university research to a 2000 Ton production press for manufacturing, ITC’s hydroforming systems fill a variety of needs.
The ITC press optimizes tube forming. Tube hydroforming reduces weight, reduces component part count, lowers assembly costs, and increases strength and stability. The system features mode switching from stroke to pressure feedback for control, and complete independent control of clamp, feeds, and pressure. This results in a highly repeatable process to maintain tight tolerances.

Customers may choose from one of our standard hydroforming systems or ITC can build an optimized solution for your specific application. ITC presses provide closed loop control of forces, motions and pressures to produce high quality parts. Our exclusive, easy-to-use software allows users to develop complex force, motion and pressure profiles for consistent tube forming applications.
The system is comprised of five sub-systems:
- A single or multi-acting, servo-controlled hydraulic press with mode switching during the process.
- Servo-controlled Hydroforming Feed Actuators that are fully integrated.
- A Servo-controlled Pressure Intensifier with pressure control valves. A variety of pressure and flow options are available.
- Interlaken designed tooling with changeable die inserts for differing cavity shapes that can be run with or without end feed.
- A B&R PC that controls the PLC I/O and HMI.
