Abstract

A control for a press for controlling the flow of fluid to two hydraulic actuators which applies a desired working force to or which positions the press platen in a desired position including a sub-control for introducing first and second super-imposed oscillations on the fluid of the actuators of equal amplitude and opposite phase to reduce internal friction in the actuators without disturbing the desired applied force or position of the platen.
