All from one source<br />
The proven <strong>Siempelkamp</strong> principle ‘all from one source’ also came<br />
into play <strong>for</strong> this project. The press was supplied as a complete<br />
package including development, construction design, assembly<br />
and start-up. Furthermore, the scope of supply also included the<br />
casting of the bolsters and the vertical tensile members of the<br />
frame, their machining on <strong>Siempelkamp</strong> heavy-duty machine tools,<br />
as well as the tables in front and behind the press. The entire oilhydraulic<br />
and electronic controls <strong>for</strong> the straightening press were<br />
also designed and built at <strong>Siempelkamp</strong>.<br />
The upper bolster of the press is equipped with two movable rams<br />
that have a press <strong>for</strong>ce of 32.5 MN each. Their cylinders are servohydraulic<br />
controlled. Each cylinder pair can be individually moved<br />
as well as together. Mounted beneath each pair of cylinders is an<br />
individual ram tool <strong>for</strong> straightening. A special feature: An aligning<br />
tool allows the connection of both hydraulic cylinder pairs. By<br />

using the aligning tool, a combined 100%, that is 65 MN, of the<br />
straightening <strong>for</strong>ce of the press can act on the plate.<br />
<strong>Siempelkamp</strong> has a solid foundation at Dillingen<br />
By the way, the heavy plate straightening press is the third<br />
<strong>Siempelkamp</strong> press operating at Dillingen. For 40 and 20 years<br />
respectively, two <strong>Siempelkamp</strong> fl anging presses with a press <strong>for</strong>ce<br />
of 22.5 and 25 MN have been operating at the metallurgical<br />
plant.<br />
The good reputation from past projects was not the only reason to<br />
buy <strong>Siempelkamp</strong> competence again. The Krefeld factory houses<br />
a ‘Schiess’, one of the largest portal milling machines in the<br />
world. <strong>Siempelkamp</strong> started operating this machine in 2008 to<br />
mechanically machine exceptionally large parts. The machine<br />
stands <strong>for</strong> high precision machining. It has a milling capacity of<br />
100 kW and machines parts with a mounting length of up to<br />
