Request Information
Ready recommends using only a premium grade of hydraulic oil.

The H-1 pump is available in six standard sizes. Each pump has four ports to activate up to four identical H-2 units. The quantity, size, and stroke length of the H-2 units hosed to each pump determines the size and oil volume of the pump needed. Pumps can be up to six feet away from H-2 units. This allows you to free up critical die space and balance die loads.

Standard Features

Standard Features

 N/A
  • H-2 unit comes with adjustable nitrogen return force. A control panel must be ordered to take full advantage of this feature.
  • Machinable front plate for customers to mount their tooling.

Popular Options

 N/A
  • Direct Punch Option. Piston rod will accept a head type punch. Punch size and shank limitations are noted on the H-2 dimension chart.
  • Oil Return Option. Used on special applications.

Mounting Suggestions

Mounting Suggestions

 N/A
  • Locate the H-2 unit in any orientation.
  • Provide for hose access to the back and right front side of the H-2 unit.
  • Provide a mounting platform that will support three times the total force of the H-2 unit.
  • Locate the H-2 unit against a thrust key.
  • The H-2 unit’s piston rod is designed to extend fully each stroke.
  • The H-2 unit is designed to provide force, not guidance. As with any air, hydraulic or nitrogen cylinder, neither the H-1 Pump nor the H-2 unit is designed to withstand side thrust forces. Properly guiding the tool and cam station will minimize wear to the cylinders and increase seal life. This is especially true in applications with long strokes, heavy or large tooling mounted, or in applications that approach the work in a non-perpendicular presentation.

 N/A Oil Return Option

The oil return option can be an alternative to nitrogen, as a method of returning or retracting the H-2 unit. This option requires a hose from the H-2 unit to an external nitrogen/oil accumulator. The typical operating pressure of the forced oil return option is 100 bar (1450 psi). This option may require careful engineering analysis in order to calculate what is best for a customer’s application. READY can assist in this evaluation.

User Sequence Option

This option requires careful application engineering to determine feasibility. Engineering fees may apply. User sequence can allow customers to control the timing of their

HYDROCAM® Systems.

The H-2 unit can be programmed to extend, dwell, and retract at nearly any point in the stroke. This allows for multiple actions to be performed in a single operation. Contact Ready for the latest developments on this exciting HYDROCAM® system technology.

Direct Punch Option

This option is used when piercing round holes only. A metric punch of the proper size range can be used. The punch shank size is limited, and is listed on the bottom of the H-2 selection chart. By removing the standard front plate, the H-2 piston will accept a customer supplied head type punch. A special locking nut is included with this option. The direct punch option fits compact areas.
