IN RECENT YEARS, THE TRANSFER PRESS HAS BECOME A POPULAR METHOD OF AUTOMATING STAMPING OPERATIONS. THIS PAPER REVIEWS THE BASIC OPERATION OF THE IN-PRESS TRANSFER AND EXPLAINS HOW THE TRANSFER IS SIZED. PROBLEMS WITH THE MECHANICAL TYPE TRANSFER SYSTEM ARE NOTED AS WELL AS AREAS WHERE THEY EXCEL. TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF SERVO-DRIVEN TRANSFERS ARE PRESENTED AND DISCUSSIONS ARE FURNISHED AS TO HOW THESE TYPES OF SYSTEMS ANSWER THE PROBLEMS OF THE MECHANICAL TRANSFER AND PROVIDE A LESS EXPENSIVE AND MORE FLEXIBLE ALTERNATIVE TO THE OLDER MECHANICAL LINKAGE-TYPE SYSTEM.
