An arbor press machine is a small hand-operated press that multiplies leverage using gears. The press applies slow, steady pressure to an object. An arbor press is a great alternative to the heavy lifting required in hammering an object. Arbor presses are also a quieter alternative to hammering – making them a great option for garage hobbyists. Janesville Tool builds precision pneumatic & mechanical arbor presses customizable to your exact specifications.

Pneumatic Press Machine
Pneumatic presses are controlled by pressurized air. Air is forced into a tube, filling the tube and applying pressure to the press, causing it to move downward. Once the stroke is finished, the air leaves the tube, causing the pump to move upwards again.
Manual Hand Press Machines
A manual arbor press assures consistent accuracy and guaranteed alignment. Many businesses find manual presses idea for small-parts production. Janesville Tool manual presses are great for precision assembly work and shearing, shaping, and punching light-gauge stock, metal, or plastic.
Arbor Presses – What size?
Janesville Tool offers arbor presses in a variety of sizes to accommodate all kinds of working spaces. The benefit of larger arbor presses is more throat space. The throat is the space behind the ram and the bolster plate. A larger throat space can accommodate large and unusually shaped objects, making it easier to work.
A 1-ton arbor press is great for small arts and crafts projects, including cutting or embossing leather. For metalworking shops, a 2- or 4-ton arbor press will apply more pressure, making less work for you. Every application is unique, so we offer a free application test to ensure the press you order from Janesville Tool meets your needs.

Force Calculation
Model numbers are set up to give the user an indication of the force that can be obtained from the press. The last three numbers of the model number, when divided by 10 and multiplied by the air pressure will yield the output force of the press.
