Wabash MPI, The leaders in compression molding equipment.

Special Applications

400 Ton Large Platen Compression Press For compression molding of large parts from composite, rubber, wood and plastic materials.

Designed for Peak Performance with Minimum Deflection

All WABASH presses are designed for user-friendly operation and maximum reliability. The large platen presses are also available with oversize bolsters for minimal deflection, resulting in improved part quality.

An energy-efficient hydraulic system, in conjunction with jack ram cylinders, assures rapid closing of the press, and then a slow closing segment. This configuration is ideal for composite molding applications where minimal cycle time, high molding pressure and accurate temperature control are required.
