Abstract

A press includes at least two press units supported by respective bearing brackets. The bearing brackets are coupled together by releasable tension rods which transmit a pressing force. When the two press units are not transmitting a pressing force in a pressing plane, the tension rods are prestressed at a maximum of a fraction of the maximum pressing force. One of the bearing brackets is movable relative to the other bearing bracket along the pressing plane. The bearing brackets are guided by a pair of guide surfaces disposed parallel to the press plane.
