Fly Presses sizes

Picture
The tonnage that press can delivers dictates its sizes. The greater the tonnage the bigger the press.

Tonnages vary from small application of around 30 kg up to 8 ton { you can get larger but they are rare}

In the UK generally the fly press model has usually a number in its designation which refers to the tonnage.
