We bought a 12 ton hydraulic shop press and milled out some aluminum 
( aluminium ) blocks wit guide pins. Works fine.

Subject: [TN] Press fit tooling

Hi Technet,

I have a question about tooling for assembly of press fit connectors.
So far we have been assembling press fit parts with improvised tooling,
but since we're seeing more and more of these connectors we feel the
need to invest in more professional equipment for doing the assembly in
a more standardized and repeatable way.
I'm looking for recommendations on the type of tooling that can be used
for this. The volumes are low.


Best regards,
