Hydraulic Presses

Hydraulic presses are used in woodworking to bond veneers and laminates onto boards, doors, and other components, applying controlled, uniform pressure across the full surface of the workpiece. Machines are available in a range of bed sizes and configurations, with heated or cold platens to suit different adhesives and materials.

Choosing the right press depends on several practical factors: the maximum size of the components you need to press, whether you require heat to activate your adhesive, and the cycle times your production demands. If you are unsure which configuration suits your work, we are happy to talk it through.
