More output. One operator. Full control.
When manual throughput is the bottleneck, our semi-automatic machines double your cycle rate while keeping the operator in charge of every press. Proven mechanical architecture, stocked spares, quick die swaps.
Numbers you can plan a shift around
Each figure below reflects steady-state production on a standard shift. No best-case claims — these are the numbers operators actually run.
Output rate
Die compatibility
Power & footprint
1,200 – 1,800 plates per hour at standard die settings. Consistent across an 8-hour shift with no warm-up loss after the first cycle.
Quick-mount die system accepts plates, dona cups, and bowls. Changeover under 12 minutes — one operator, no special tooling required.
Single-phase 2 HP motor. Compact footprint fits standard workshop bays. Spares stocked at our facility — no extended lead times.

Plates, dona cups, and bowls from a single machine body — swap the die, restart the shift, same output consistency.
Typical repair turnaround. Spares are stocked; downtime is measured in hours, not the weeks a special-order part costs you.
Throughput versus a comparable manual hydraulic press, measured on identical paper stock and die size.
