Precision and Power in Every Double-Point Press
Stamping applications demand strength, stability, and repeatable precision, and a double-point press from Sangiacomo Presses Americas does not disappoint. Designed for maximum rigidity and balanced force distribution, these presses handle larger dies and tougher forming operations with ease. Each model provides consistent performance and long-term durability, helping you achieve higher accuracy, smoother production, and longer tool life—no compromises required.
2-Point Gap Frame Press: Technical Highlights
Our double-point straight side presses range from 125 to 500 tons, delivering the strength, balance, and stability needed for high-tonnage stamping applications. Using two connecting rods, these machines distribute force evenly across the ram, making them ideal for progressive and transfer stamping, as well as forming larger or asymmetrical parts with superior accuracy.
Engineered for safety, precision, and long-term reliability, every Sangiacomo double point press incorporates proven design principles and premium components to maximize performance and uptime:
- Certified to meet CE and OSHA/ANSI standards
- Unitized steel frame validated through Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
- Forged alloy steel shaft for maximum strength and durability
- Pneumatic or hydro-pneumatic clutch brake systems
- Fast-acting automatic hydraulic overload protection
- Siemens PLC control panel for precise operation and easy monitoring
- Variable strokes per minute to adapt to production needs
- Automatic ram adjustment for simplified setup
- Eight-point adjustable ram guides for enhanced alignment
- PILZ safety systems for reliable operator protection
- Ram with oil collection system for cleaner operation
- Air counterbalance cylinders for smooth, balanced motion
- Safety light curtains (front) and mechanical guards (rear) for added safety

Designed for Durability
A forged alloy steel shaft, unitized steel frame, and heavy-duty construction make every two-point gap frame press a long-term investment in uptime. Tested with Finite Element Analysis, these presses stand up to continuous production with reduced vibration and wear.
Engineered for Control
Featuring a SIEMENS PLC control system and variable speed operation, Sangiacomo presses give you precision control over every cycle. The automatic ram adjustment and quick overload protection systems keep your line running safely and efficiently.
Frequently Asked Questions About Double Point Straight Presses
Below, we've answered a few common questions concerning our double-point press:
What makes a double-point press different from a single-point model?
A double point press uses two connecting rods instead of one, distributing force evenly across larger dies. This provides better balance, accuracy, and stability for demanding stamping jobs.
Are Sangiacomo double-point presses customizable?
Yes. Our engineering team can tailor the press to your exact requirements, from custom bolster plates to auxiliary mounting, non-standard clearances, and other design modifications.
What applications are ideal for double-point presses?
They excel in high-tonnage operations, such as progressive and transfer stamping, as well as forming large or asymmetrical parts where balanced force is critical.
