C-frame, H-frame & 4-column hydraulic presses built in Ludhiana since 1959. ISO 9001:2015 certified. Factory-direct pricing with pan-India delivery and export support.
Since 1959, Hardev Hydraulics has been engineering hydraulic press machines that outlast and outperform. Every press is designed in-house, fabricated from heavy-duty structural steel and pressure-tested before dispatch.
Whether you need a compact bench-top 5-ton press for a maintenance workshop or a 500-ton 4-column press for automotive forging — we engineer to your exact stroke, daylight, platen and control requirements. Our hydraulic presses operate across industries including automotive, aerospace fasteners, construction hardware, agricultural equipment, railways and defence.
Each configuration is optimised for specific load ranges, workspace requirements and cycle speeds. All share the same ISO-certified hydraulic system and control architecture.
Gap-frame design allows three-sided access to the work area — ideal for press fitting, straightening, light stamping and repair-shop operations. Compact footprint with open front, left and right access.

Every press manufactured and tested under ISO-certified quality management. Hydrostatic pressure test certificate provided with delivery.
Frames fabricated from IS 2062 structural steel and EN8 alloy. Fully stress-relieved, machined on CNC boring mills for flat and parallel platens.
Rexroth and Yuken hydraulic systems with precision-ground cylinders, Parker seals and high-efficiency pumps for long service life and minimal downtime.
Nationwide service network with spare parts inventory. On-site commissioning, operator training and annual maintenance contracts available.
Hardev Hydraulics manufactures hydraulic press machines from 5 ton to 500 ton. C-frame presses cover 5–100 ton, H-frame presses cover 50–300 ton, and 4-column presses cover 100–500 ton for heavy industrial applications.
A C-frame press has a gap-frame design allowing three-sided access to the work area — ideal for short-run press fits, straightening and light stamping. An H-frame press has a closed box frame offering greater rigidity and capacity — suitable for heavy-duty forging, deep drawing and high-force applications up to 300 ton.
Hardev hydraulic presses are used for forging, hot and cold stamping, deep drawing, blanking, punching, bending, straightening, press fitting (bearings, bushings), rubber moulding, powder compaction and general assembly operations.
Yes. Hardev Hydraulics designs custom hydraulic presses to match specific stroke lengths, daylight openings, platen sizes, cycle speeds and control requirements. Custom machines are manufactured on confirmed orders with full engineering drawings provided before production.
Standard catalogue models (5–100 ton C-frame and H-frame) are dispatched within 4–8 weeks from order confirmation. Larger 4-column presses (100–500 ton) and custom configurations require 8–16 weeks. Pan-India delivery is arranged via heavy transport. Export orders to Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and the Middle East are also accepted.
