| (54) | Mechanical press adapted for forming processes, and method |
| (57) Mechanical press adapted for forming processes, comprising a top die and a bottom
die adapted for forming a piece between both, a motor for causing the movement of
at least one of them with respect to the other, a crankshaft coupled to the motor,
and a mechanism transforming the rotary movement of the crankshaft into linear movement
of said die. The press further comprises a hydraulic chamber (4) for damping or absorbing
possible overloads during forming, and an actuator device for causing at least part
of the fluid present in the hydraulic chamber (4) to be discharged when the press
is at bottom dead center in which the piece is formed between the dies, and causing
at least part of said fluid to return to the hydraulic chamber (4) once the press
leaves bottom dead center.
