DEES Hydraulic Industrial Co ., Ltd . is a hydraulic press manufacturer with factories in Taiwan and China . Its main products include presses such as custom triple-action ; diespotting ; die tryout ; deep-drawing ; transfer ; servo-controlled ; tandem line ; hot-forming four-post ; hemming ; C-frame etc . Its focus is on three main stamping areas : servo motors , higher speed of the hydraulic press and higher productivity for presses , using accumulators for shorter strokes . DEES Hydraulic has also successfully developed a closed loop , hydraulic , servo-controlled die-spotting press .
Formed in 1976 in Taiwan , it has been present in China since 2000 and , in 2014 , moved to a newly built factory in China which is almost double the size of its previous factory there . The automotive market is a key industry sector for the Taiwanese manufacturer , which supplies customers such as Audi ; Volkswagen ; Mercedes-Benz ; Volvo ; HONDA ; TOYOTA ; BMW and more .
Fagor Arrasate , headquartered in Spain , designs and manufactures presses and stamping systems from 630KN up to 150,000KN , using mechanical , hydraulic or servo-driven technology , depending upon customer requirements . New solutions for large transfer presses of above 30,000kN to process tailored blanks , HSS and UHSS , were launched in November 2021 . Its high-speed press line ( WaveLine concept ) has been developed to transfer large , stamped parts ( such as body side , hood , roof and double-door units ) through large tandem press lines .
It has incorporated Danobat ’ s coil lasercutting technology into its press lines . With an eye on Industry 4.0 , it brought the Digital Twin of an existing 2000-ton press to the Blechexpo exhibition last year to show different applications of the model in training , maintenance or commissioning .
In May 2022 tests with Mondragon Unibertsitatea and Batz S . Coop , Fagor recently demonstrated that the weight of a vehicle bumper can be reduced by 40 % by using hotstamped aluminium .

Ing Yu is a Taiwanese precision stamping press manufacturer which provides high-speed presses for automotive , can-making , motor lamination and complex forming applications . INGYU ’ s Apex straightside , two-plunger , high-speed press features two-piece casting frames . Its Saga multi-slide motion mechanical press features three slide motion modes , including forming , bending and drawing , in one press to maximise productivity .
Interlaken Technology Company ( ITC ), a manufacturer of production press equipment for hydroforming , elevated temperature forming and hot-stamping systems , has introduced a four-column hydroforming press system for running high-volume production while reducing cycle time . Interlaken offers this hydroforming press system in clamp forces ranging from 250 to 5000 tons . Hydroformed parts are stronger and weigh less due to structural integrity and fewer welds or add-on pieces .
ITC has taken its knowledge of hydroform press design and combined it with the forming techniques developed by HEATform™ . HEATform™ is Hot Metal Gas Forming
Ing Yu ’ s APEX press .
