As a safety measure to guarantee the safety of the operator and to safeguard the machine, anti-fall and anti-explosion safety valves are installed on all hydraulic molding presses produced by SICMI.

The anti-fall valve (1) has the function of keeping the hydraulic cylinder under pressure in the event that the hydraulic hose slips out. In this way, the cylinder, despite the weight of the upper platform connected to it, would remain stationary in its position and would not fall downwards, thus avoiding injuring the user.

As a further form of safety, the anti-explosion valve (2) is installed, which comes into operation in the event that the anti-fall valve jams.

The function of the anti-burst valve is to drain the hydraulic oil from the cylinder if the pressure rises beyond the permitted limit and therefore prevents the cylinder itself from bursting.

Both valves are from the famous Rexroth brand which is recognized globally for its high quality and extreme reliability products.
