<p>A system for damping abrupt movement of a punch press ram at the moment of cut-breakthrough with the use of at least two damping pistons disposed within cylinders and arranged to engage the press ram before and during cut-breakthrough. The cylinders within which the damping pistons are carried are connected to a hydraulic control system which permits the pistons to yield with the ram until the instant of cut-breakthrough, whereupon the damping pistons act as rigid bodies and prevent abrupt breakthrough movement of the ram.</p> |
