What Is a Die Spotting Press?

A die spotting press — sometimes referred to as a die tryout press — is a specialized hydraulic press designed for checking, testing and fine-tuning molds, dies and tools before they go into full production. 

Unlike a standard forming press, a die spotting machine provides precise parallelism and controlled clamping pressure, allowing technicians to open, close and align molds / dies safely and accurately. This ensures that every Die surface mates ideally before being transferred to production equipment, minimizing defects and costly adjustments.

Benefits of a Die Spotting Hydraulic Press

  • Precision-ground platens for superior flatness and die alignment
  • Four-post or column designs for parallel motion and consistent closure
  • Adjustable clamping pressure to replicate production conditions
  • Die safety features for easy access and operator protection
  • Integrated hydraulic controls for smooth, precise movement
