A method of controlling a hydraulic system, the hydraulic system including a ram cylinder unit having a cylinder and a ram, and a hydraulic pump and a reservoir used to supply hydraulic fluid to the cylinder, and hydraulically driving the ram using the hydraulic fluid so as to move against a specific load, the method includes determining what a present state is one of an initial state, a proportional steady state, and a later state, controlling the pumping rate, which is obtained by adding the flow rate corresponding to the volume loss due to the compression of the hydraulic fluid thereto, to control the ram in the initial state, and controlling the pumping rate, which is obtained by subtracting the flow rate corresponding to volume recovery of the hydraulic fluid due to the relief of compression of the hydraulic fluid therefrom, to control the ram in the later state.

The invention relates to a bar and tube extruding press for forming metal ingots into profiles, tubes, bars or the like, comprising a male die and a female die, through which a metal ingot can be pressed by means of the male die, comprising a container, and comprising a driving device, in which the driving device comprises at least one main cylinder for applying the main pressing force of the male die to the metal ingots, characterized in that on the one hand the driving device comprises at least one speed-controlled internal gear pump for providing the hydraulic oil to the at least one main cylinder, by means of which the at least one main cylinder can be driven, and in that on the other hand the driving device additionally comprises at least one hydraulic advance and/or return cylinder for moving the male die in relation to the female die or at least one electrical drive for moving the male die in relation to the female die, by means of which the male die can he moved into a position in which the speed-controlled internal gear pump only then interacts with the at least one main cylinder in such a way that the main pressing force is applied to the male die by means of the at least one main cylinder.

Systems, devices, and methods are described for extruding materials. In certain embodiments, one or more hollow billets are loaded onto an elongate mandrel bar and transported along the mandrel bar to a rotating die. The billets are transported through fluid clamps, which engage the mandrel bar and provide cooling fluid to the mandrel bar tip, and through mandrel grips, which engage the mandrel bar and prevent the mandrel bar from rotating. One or more press-rams advance the billets through a centering insert and into the rotating die. A quench assembly is provided at an extrusion end of the extrusion press to quench the extruded material. A programmable logic controller may be provided to control, at least in part, operations of the extrusion press system.

The invention relates to an extrusion press or tube press (1), in particular for aluminum or aluminum alloys, comprising a press frame which consists of a cylinder bar and a counter bar (3) connected thereto, and in which a moving bar and a moving block receiver (2) are arranged, the moving block receiver being formed to move a block to be pressed, introduced with a loading device, into a compression position in front of the counter bar (3) having a die, characterized in that a shearing device (4) is provided for separating a butt remaining after the extrusion process, and the shearing device (4) is vertically and horizontally movable on the extrusion frame. The invention further relates to a method for separating a butt during extrusion and tube extrusion using an extrusion press or tube press according to the invention.
