Abstract
A portable cam and lever actuated press which utilizes the substantial force available from an air spring to actuate one or more lever arms. The substantial force available from an air spring and the specialty cam system provided allows the device to perform clinching, crimping, punching, stenciling, riveting, stamping, holding, or other operations which would normally be performed with much larger and heavier equipment when the proper punches and dies are installed onto the lever arms. The unit operates pneumatically without the need for hydraulics or hydraulically assisted components.
