Genesis Large Compression Press
Genesis Large Compression Press

Genesis Series

Ideal for Compression Molding of Rubber, Plastic, Composites and Laminating: In 15 to 150 Ton Capacities

Tonnage Range: 15 – 150    |    Platen Size (“): 12×12 – 30×30

Genesis Series presses are state-of-the-art hydraulic presses for compression molding of rubber, plastics and composites; and for laminating and bonding or pressure applications where positive ram control is needed. The Genesis Series reflects more than a half a century of Wabash leadership in hydraulic press design and construction. It is rugged enough for round-the-clock performance on the production floor, but works equally well as a precision laboratory press.

Genesis presses are available in 15 through 150 ton capacities. The hydraulic system produces faster closing and opening speeds, making it ideal for use with many of today’s advanced molding compounds. Optional heated platens are available for 500°F, 650°F, 800°F, 1200°F and 1800°F operating temperatures, which are required for many composite, ceramic and other molding applications.

Genesis Presses can be Customized for Compression Molding Applications:

While standard Wabash Genesis Presses handle a broad range of applications and can be upgraded or performance-enhanced with available options, your unique requirements may call for a “customized” press. Consult your Wabash representative for more information about “customization ” for your particular needs.
