Drive
The encapsulated drive system is
installed in a cast head adapted to
the demanding working environ-
ments in the forge. The head also
serves as an oil reservoir and is
mounted with vibration damping
onto the uprights. The use of a
forged control block combining
most of the important control
elements reduces the need for
pipework almost completely. This
type of control system ensures
high operational reliability and
efficiency.
