Thanks to its high crimping force of 100 tons, the F39.100.1 hydraulic press is especially suitable for professional applications where quality, safety and repeatability are essential.

Technical Data of the F39.100.1 Hydraulic Press

100-Ton Hydraulic Press for Professional Power Line Construction

With a crimping force of 100 tons, the F39.100.1 enables reliable crimping of cable lugs, connectors and sleeves used in professional electrical power systems and utility networks. In power engineering, a correctly performed crimped connection is critical because it affects both the electrical and mechanical quality of the connection.

Compared with simple manual tools, the F39.100.1 hydraulic press provides higher crimping force, better process control and uniform force transmission. This allows operators to achieve repeatable, high-quality crimped connections in demanding working conditions.

Operation with Hydraulic Power Unit or Manual Hydraulic Pump

One of the key advantages of the F39.100.1 press is its flexible hydraulic power supply. The press can be operated with a hydraulic power unit or with a manual hydraulic pump.

For intensive work, serial crimping operations or a large number of connections, a hydraulic power unit is recommended. It allows shorter working cycles, higher efficiency and reduced physical effort for the operator.

For service tasks, repair work, occasional crimping or jobs in hard-to-reach areas, a manual hydraulic pump can be a practical and mobile solution.

Hydraulic Ram Return and Fast Working Cycle

The F39.100.1 hydraulic cable press is equipped with hydraulic ram return. This shortens the working cycle and makes the press ready for the next crimping operation more quickly.

This feature is particularly important during repeated crimping operations, for example in larger cable projects, network modernization works or overhead line assembly.

360° Rotating Press Head for Comfortable Field Operation

The press body can rotate 360° in relation to the base plate. This allows the operator to position the press correctly in relation to the cable, conductor or fitting being crimped.

This feature improves ergonomics and makes work easier in confined or difficult-to-access areas, such as cable trenches, pole structures, substations or overhead line work sites.

Robust Steel Construction and Metal Transport Box

The F39.100.1 is made of steel and designed for professional use under demanding site conditions. Its robust construction ensures high load capacity, durability and long service life.

The press is supplied in a strong metal transport box with handles. This allows safe storage, easy transport and protection of the tool between work sites.

Crimping Dies for Aluminium, Copper and Steel

Suitable crimping dies are available for the F39.100.1 hydraulic press for different materials, including aluminium, copper and steel.

Correct die selection is essential for the quality of the crimped connection. The material, conductor cross-section, connector type, diameter and technical requirements of the connection element should always be considered.

Power Energy provides technical support in selecting the right press, hydraulic power supply and crimping dies for specific cable, conductor and power line applications.
