Hydraulic Wheel Press
Prototype by Niles-Bement-Pond Tool Company
This 48-inch, 200-ton
hydraulic car wheel press was purchased in 1913. The model includes a
swing post crane, differential chain hoist, and ceiling hardware. The
kit includes 56 detailed white metal castings, belt material, wire,
chain, and a 16 page instruction booklet with detailed AutoCAD drawings
and a description of how the machine is used. The model stands 4
1/4" high but the post crane can be modified to reduce model height
if necessary. A floor space of 2"x4 1/4" is required.
