C-Frame Power Press: The First Machine Every Sheet Metal Shop Buys

Ask any established stamping unit what their first machine was and the answer is almost always the same: a C-frame power press. Its open three-side access makes hand feeding fast, and one machine handles blanking, piercing, notching, bending, and coining with nothing more than a die change.

Core Operations

Blanking and piercing of brackets and washers, notching and trimming, shallow drawing of caps and covers, embossing and coining of nameplates, and bending of clamps and clips.

Industries Served

Electrical switchgear and panel fabrication, bicycle and auto ancillaries, hardware and fasteners, kitchenware, and general job-work shops across India.

Fixed or Inclinable?

Inclinable C-frames let finished parts slide off by gravity — better for high-volume small parts. Fixed-body versions give more rigidity for precision piercing. Most job shops start with a 30 to 63 tonne machine and add a second press before they ever outgrow the first.
