Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0972631A1] Press operation can be switched from 'simulation' with high plunger speed and low number of strokes, to 'production' with low speed and higher number of strokes. For this purpose, the pressure accumulator drive for a cylinder-piston unit (2) has an associated hydraulic transformer unit (27). This consists of a first hydraulic unit (28), formed as angle-adjustable hydraulic motor (29), and a second hydraulic unit (36), formed as an adjustable hydraulic pump, which is mechanically connected to the first. During simulation operation, the hydraulic accumulator (8) of the pump unit serves as drive for the first hydraulic unit.
