Composite Presses
Genesis Series from 15 to 150 ton Presses
Hydraulic Presses for for Compression Molding of Rubber, Plastics and Composites
Genesis Series presses are state-of-the-art hydraulic presses for compression molding of rubber, plastics and composites. The Genesis Series reflects more than a half century of WABASH leadership in hydraulic press design and construction. It is rugged enough for a round-the-clock performance on the production floor, but works equally well as a precision laboratory press.
Genesis presses are available in 15 through 150 ton capacities. The hydraulic system produces faster closing and opening speeds, making it ideal for use with many of today's advanced molding compounds. Optional heated platens are available for 500°F, 800°F and 1200°F operating temperatures, which are required for many other applications including composite, ceramic and other molding.
Customized Genesis Presses from Wabash MPI
While standard WABASH Genesis Presses handle a broad range of applications and can be upgraded or performance-enhanced with available options, your unique requirements may call for a "customized" press. Consult your WABASH representative for more information about "customization " for your particular needs
