Abstract (en)

A hydraulically operated cutting press of the moving bed type has four piston-and-cylinder arrangements (C1-C4) arranged at or adjacent each corner of the cutting bed (24) and a balancing mechanism (58) including two balancing valves (BV1, BV2) connected across diagonally opposite corners of the bed. The balancing valves (BV1, BV2) are so connected to their associated piston-and-cylinder arrangements (C1-C4) that during a cutting stroke they control the flow of exhaust fluid from said arrangements, while during a return stroke they control the flow of fluid supplied to said arrangements. In addition, the two sides of each piston-and-cylinder arrangement (C1-C4) are connected by a line in which is disposed a valve (CV13, CV23, CV33,CV34) which is closed during a cutting stroke of the press and open during a return stroke of the press, thereby enabling fluid exhausting from the one side of each arrangement during a return stroke to be admitted to the other side thereof.
