Gap Frame Presses
Magnum Presses offers the most complete line of high-speed standard gap frame, or C-frame, presses in the industry, with standard configurations, 2-post and 4-post guided tool plates, heavy-duty gib guided models, and compact designs. Our self-contained gap frame presses are also available in standard or high speed, and as both floor and bench models to suit your needs. Magnum Press’s heavy-duty gap frame designs offer superior resistance to deflection common to most gap frame models on the market.
Standard gap frame presses include completely removable power packs for easy maintenance, hydraulic and electrical systems specifically designed for presses, and robust fabricated steel frames. Every gap frame press we produce is designed, machined, and assembled in our Magnum Press factory right here in the US, allowing us to ensure the highest quality and consistency with every press. When you choose a custom Magnum Press, we can supply tool mounting plates, custom bed sizes, and a wide range of additional features to suit your application.

Horizontal Presses
Our MGFHZ Bulldozer horizontal presses are designed to be mounted on the floor without the need for an additional stand or table. These models offer the performance of our standard C-frame presses with a heavy-duty gib guided tool plate and heavy fabricated steel frame in a horizontal C-frame press design, providing top and side access to the die, optimal precision, and superior strength.
Magnum also builds custom M2PSHZ 2-post and M4PSHZ 4-post column style presses allowing for optimized bed to ram parallelism. Other custom horizontal presses may be based on other Magnum vertical presses per your specific application. Like most Magnum Presses, our horizontal models can be modified to create a powerful press suited to your requirements. Customized designs are built for the specific tonnage, bed and ram size, speed, and control features needed for your application with exceptional resistance to off-center loading.
Column Presses
Our heavy column style presses can accommodate small the large die space and feature frames for economical design in larger press bed areas. This style of hydraulic press also provides superior bed to ram parallelism over gap frame presses and may be more cost-efficient than gap frame models. Every column press design undergoes rigorous analysis through Finite Element Analysis (FEA) design testing and features a rugged frame with ‘Superbolt” multi-jack column tensioners.

Straight Side Presses
Straight side models are ideal for jobs where precision is key, as these presses maintain superior bed to ram parallelism over C-frame presses and accommodate small to large die space. Our straight side presses are available as both bench and floor models, and all structural designs undergo analysis through Finite Element Analysis design testing.
Our MSS4P series feature post guided tool plates while the MSSG series feature gib guided tool plates, providing the ultimate in tooling guidance for heavy-duty off-center loading applications. These straight side gib guided presses are excellent for tougher jobs, with “off-the-shelf” self-lubricating, replaceable bronze gib material and 6 or 8-point bearing contact with adjustment bolts to compensate for wear. Depending on your application, these tool plates may eliminate the need for a die set.
