25T Hydraulic Press: The Precision Power Cornerstone of Intelligent Livestock Equipment Manufacturing

In the process of modern animal husbandry transforming towards intensification and automation, the standardized production capacity of breeding equipment has become a core indicator for measuring the industry's modernization level. The 25T hydraulic press, specially developed for animal husbandry, is becoming the core equipment for manufacturing iron components such as ranch fences, livestock cages, and feed conveying equipment, with its excellent hydraulic control precision, high-efficiency mass production capacity, and flexible production design. This industrial equipment integrating mechanical power and intelligent control, with a stable output of 10-15 workpieces per minute, builds an efficient transformation bridge from raw materials to finished products for large-scale ranch construction, pushing livestock equipment manufacturing into a new era of "precision intelligent manufacturing" from "manual processing".

The power system of the 25T hydraulic press takes a 7.5KW oil pump motor as the core, matched with a PV2R1-28 high-pressure oil pump, constructing a stable hydraulic transmission network. The upper pressure cylinder with a 140mm inner diameter is like a precise "industrial palm", which can output adjustable pressure of 0-25T during a 350mm downward stroke, achieving ±0.1mm deformation control for 2-6mm iron wires — this precision is sufficient to ensure that the welding point spacing error of ranch fences is less than 0.5mm, keeping the fence structurally stable when withstanding livestock impact. The lower top cylinder with an 80mm inner diameter forms collaborative operation with the upper pressure cylinder through ±0.5mm displacement precision, especially suitable for one-time forming of complex structures such as "U-shaped feeder brackets" and "arc-shaped chicken cage borders" in livestock equipment, avoiding metal fatigue hidden dangers caused by multiple bendings in traditional processes.

The equipment's 850mm work platform provides a flexible operation space for iron wire processing: it can not only meet the processing of strip components up to 2 meters for farm fences but also adapt to the stacked forming of multi-layer frames for feed racks. The compact body of 1600mm×1000mm×2500mm (total weight 1.5T) adopts a high-strength steel structure, optimizing the force distribution through finite element analysis, and controlling the vibration amplitude within 0.02mm during operation to ensure workpiece precision when processing 6mm thick iron wires. This design logic combining "high-power output" with "micro-precision control" is the technical code for the hydraulic press to adapt to multiple scenarios in animal husbandry.

In traditional livestock equipment manufacturing, manual bending of iron wires not only has a daily production capacity of less than 200 pieces but also causes 20% of workpieces to need rework due to differences in force control. The 25T hydraulic press achieves an efficiency leap in livestock equipment manufacturing with a production speed of 10-15 pieces/minute (300% higher than traditional processes). Taking large-scale pig farms as an example, a single device can produce 900 fence connectors in 1 hour, enough to complete the fence installation for a 1000-square-meter pig house, saving 80% of man-hours compared to manual production. More importantly, the equipment's full-range adaptation to 2-6mm iron wires perfectly covers the diverse needs of animal husbandry: 2mm iron wires can be used for processing fine meshes of chick cages to ensure chicks do not drill out; 6mm iron wires are suitable for forming load-bearing columns of beef cattle fences, which can withstand a lateral impact of more than 500kg.

The intelligent pressure adjustment function of the hydraulic system further enhances production flexibility — when processing 4mm iron wires, the system automatically matches 18T pressure to complete bending; when handling 2mm thin wires, it uses 8T pressure for gentle forming to avoid wire breakage. This process logic of "combining rigidity and flexibility" increases the yield rate of livestock equipment to 99.7%. After a large breeding enterprise introduced this equipment, the accident rate of livestock casualties caused by equipment failures decreased by 75%, directly reducing breeding risk costs.

The equipment is equipped with a PLC closed-loop control system, which real-time collects the pressure value of the upper pressure cylinder and the displacement data of the lower top cylinder, and automatically calibrates processing parameters through a fuzzy algorithm. In the feed rack welding process, the system controls the welding point spacing error within ±0.3mm, keeping the feed rack horizontal when loading 100kg of feed to avoid feed spillage caused by tilting. This precision control not only improves equipment durability but also saves about 30,000 yuan in feed costs for ranches annually by reducing feed waste.

The 7.5KW energy-saving motor, combined with energy feedback technology, saves 35% more electricity than traditional hydraulic equipment. Calculated based on 10 hours of daily operation, it can save more than 8,000 kWh annually. The body is cast from QT400 ductile iron, and the piston rod is treated with hard chrome plating. Wear tests show that the wear amount is less than 0.01mm after 100,000 consecutive working cycles. The usage data of a Shandong livestock equipment manufacturer shows that the equipment has operated continuously for 4 years without replacing core components, and the maintenance cost is 50% lower than similar equipment, with significant full-life cycle cost advantages.

Through modular mold design, the equipment can complete mold replacement within 10 minutes: producing rectangular pig house fence molds in the morning and switching to arc-shaped chicken cage border molds in the afternoon. This rapid model change capability is particularly suitable for the "multiple varieties, small batches" order characteristics of animal husbandry. With the help of this equipment, a ranch equipment manufacturer has shortened the delivery cycle of customer customized orders from 7 days to 2 days, tripled order receiving capacity, and successfully entered the high-end ranch equipment market.

In the wave of digital transformation in animal husbandry, the 25T hydraulic press is embracing intelligent production through technological upgrades. The reserved RS485 communication interface of the equipment can access the ranch MES system, real-time uploading production data (such as processing quantity, energy consumption curves, mold life), helping enterprises achieve visual management of production processes. If an AI visual inspection module is integrated in the future, the equipment will have the ability to "automatically identify surface defects of iron wires - intelligently adjust bending parameters", further improving the level of unmanned production. This evolution from "mechanical execution" to "intelligent decision-making" makes the hydraulic press a key node connecting livestock equipment manufacturing and the industrial internet.

From every precise bend of ranch fences to every stable forming of livestock cages, the 25T hydraulic press reshapes the production genes of animal husbandry with industrial power. It is not only an efficient production tool but also an engine driving the transformation of traditional animal husbandry towards modernization — here, the strength of steel and the precision of technology collide to spark innovation, ultimately transforming into a comfortable environment for livestock in ranches, operational benefits for breeders, and a solid support for the high-end development of the entire animal husbandry.
