What is a Travelling Head Press?

A travelling head press is a hydraulic die cutting machine where the cutting head moves across the material surface, allowing operators to cut large sheets or rolls of material efficiently.

This type of press is ideal for:

  • Continuous cutting operations
  • Large material formats
  • Roll-fed production systems
  • High-volume manufacturing

Travelling head presses provide greater flexibility and material efficiency compared to fixed-head clicking presses.

Synchronized Control, Dynamic Braking, Feeding Systems & Counting

  • Synchronized controls and the protection barrier support operator safety and cutting accuracy.
  • The dynamic braking system stops the trolley quickly and reduces wear on the motor gear unit.
  • Feeding systems are available for roll materials with manual or automatic opening.
  • An optional cut counter controls the number of cut pieces or plans an automatic stop.
