The Longitudinal Belt Press (LS) is unique to Shaw Almex Group! No one builds a press quite like it. Due to the unique window frame design, the press is essentially an Open Four Side Press! Belts can pass through the press in either the longitudinal direction (length), or cross-wise (width).
If the belt is passing through the longitudinal direction, the operators have clear access to BOTH sides of the platen. The Upper and Lower press frames are mounted on rails, which allows the operator to move both the lower platen sideways, AND the upper platen sideways.
Moving the upper platen sideways, so that it completely clears the bottom platen, allows for easy mold change-out!
