Upgrading hydraulic presses

Extend the service life of your hydraulic presses, reduce downtime and get more out of your existing production equipment. With a professional upgrade from STENHØJ HYDRAULIK, you can modernise your hydraulic presses with new features, improved efficiency, and opportunities for energy optimisation and CO₂ reduction.

We offer three tailored upgrade packages designed to suit the condition of your press, your production needs and your future requirements. Whether you need a minor upgrade or a comprehensive modernisation, we help you find the right solution – without necessarily having to invest in a completely new press.

With 100 years of experience in hydraulic press design and engineering, STENHØJ HYDRAULIK has the technical expertise to advise you on upgrades, documentation and relevant CE requirements.

How the upgrade process works

A successful upgrade of a hydraulic press begins with a thorough assessment of the machine’s condition and your needs. That is why we follow a structured process to identify opportunities for improvement and plan the upgrade to suit your production requirements.

1. Healthcheck

We assess the condition of your press, examining factors such as pressure loss, potential leaks and component wear. The aim is to establish the machine’s current condition and identify areas where an upgrade can improve operational reliability, efficiency and service life.

2. Quotation

Based on the machine condition assessment, we prepare a report outlining our findings and relevant upgrade options. Along with the report, you receive a tailored quotation and a draft installation plan that takes your preferences, production requirements and any new features into account.

3. Installation

Once the upgrade has been agreed, we prepare the necessary hardware and software. This ensures a planned installation focused on smooth commissioning and minimal downtime. The installation is scheduled to fit around your production operations as efficiently as possible.

Choose the right upgrade for your hydraulic press

The need to modernise a hydraulic press varies from one company to another. That is why STENHØJ HYDRAULIK offers three upgrade packages: Preventive, Modernisation and All-in.

Whether you want to improve specific functions, optimise press performance or carry out a more comprehensive modernisation, we start with your existing press and your future requirements.

The right upgrade can extend the service life of your press, reduce the risk of unplanned production downtime and create opportunities for improved energy efficiency. Depending on the solution you choose, the upgrade may also include new features and modifications designed to help meet relevant machine safety requirements and CE documentation requirements.
