H Frame Power Press Manufacturer in India
The name "H Frame" comes from the H-shaped frame structure — two vertical columns (pillars) with a connecting crossbeam. Because the frame is closed on both sides, it resists deflection better than an open C-Frame press, making it the preferred choice for precision stamping, deep drawing and forging at higher tonnages.
Basant's H Frame presses are welded from stress-relieved graded steel with nickel-phosphorous bushes and an adjustable stroke, built for drawing, pressing, stamping, trimming, cutting, blanking and piercing work.
Key Features
- Two- or four-pillar frame for exceptional rigidity and stability
- Available with mechanical or pneumatic (hydraulic-style control) drive
- Adjustable bed and ram for different dies and workpiece sizes
- Tonnage typically 20T to 1000T+
- Precision guide system along the pillars for accurate ram alignment

H Frame Power Press — Frequently Asked
What is an H Frame power press also known as?
It's also known as a Pillar Type or Straight-Side power press, named for its two vertical support columns.
What tonnage range does Basant's H Frame press cover?
From 20 tons up to 1000+ tons, available with mechanical or pneumatic clutch and die cushion.
Why choose an H Frame press over a C-Frame press?
The closed, two-pillar frame of an H Frame press deflects less under heavy load than an open C-Frame, making it better suited to higher-tonnage precision stamping, deep drawing and forging.
