Provided herein are pressure modules (40) for use with die pressing operations for stripping work pieces from individual dies. The pressure module includes a top plate (42) and a transfer plate (44) that is separated by a resilient member (46, 48) that is compressed when a die set is closed and which provides a restoring force when the die set is opened. The pressure modules are formed independent of the dies and supported relative to the ram (12) or press-bed of the press. In this regard, transfer pins (60) may be utilized to transfer the restoring force from the resilient member (46, 48) to a stripper mechanism (62). In another arrangement, a press is provided that allows the pressure modules to be removed from or inserted into the press without removing a die set attached to the press.
