In hydraulic systems for large presses and industrial machines, the hydraulic valve block plays a key role in controlling the circuit. This CMH block was designed for a 100-tonne hydraulic press: a large manifold weighing around 600 kg, built to integrate complex hydraulic functions in a single machined body.
In hydraulic systems for hydraulic presses and large industrial machines, the hydraulic valve block plays a key role in controlling the circuit.
This CMH hydraulic valve block was designed for a 100-tonne hydraulic press. It is a large manifold, weighing around 600 kg, built to integrate complex hydraulic functions in a single machined body.
Building hydraulic valve blocks of this kind requires specific expertise in both circuit design and machining. The deep-drilled passages must be produced with precision, maintaining concentricity, clean internal galleries and consistency between the hydraulic schematic and the final function of the machine.
To achieve this result, the block was machined with CNC machines suited to producing large-size components. Machining precision is decisive in ensuring the correct flow of oil, the integration of the valves and the reliability of the system over time.
In a hydraulic press, the manifold is not a simple connecting element. It is an active part of hydraulic control: it organises the functions, distributes the flow and contributes to the safety and regularity of the machine’s operation.
CMH designs and manufactures custom hydraulic valve blocks starting from the real requirements of the application: pressure, flow, number of services, movement sequence, available space, maintenance access and operating conditions.
As dimensions increase, so does the importance of design. A large hydraulic valve block must be robust, precise and consistent with the circuit it has to manage.
CMH Oleodinamica develops custom manifolds and hydraulic valve blocks for industrial applications, with attention to build quality, CNC machining precision and the reliability of the final system.
