The KINGLAN ALC-160 is a 160 ton C frame mechanical press designed for sheet metal stamping operations used in electrical junction box and metal enclosure production. It supports punching, blanking, forming, bending and other stamping processes and can work with dedicated dies to manufacture junction box bodies, covers and related sheet metal components.
Featuring a rigid welded frame, double crank drive, precision slide guidance, pneumatic clutch and brake, and hydraulic overload protection, the ALC-160 provides stable performance for repeated stamping operations. The press can also be integrated with decoilers, straighteners, servo feeders and other automation equipment for continuous coil-fed production.
160 Ton Press for Electrical Junction Box Production
Electrical junction boxes and metal enclosures typically require multiple sheet metal operations, including blanking, hole punching, knockout punching and forming. The ALC-160 provides 160 tons of press capacity and a wide working area to accommodate different dies and stamping requirements.
Depending on the part design, material thickness, die structure and required production output, the press can be used as a standalone machine or incorporated into an automated stamping line.
For projects with different tonnage requirements, other ALC Series press capacities are also available.
