Bernardo HWP 30 – Hydraulic Workshop Press
The Bernardo HWP 30 hydraulic press is a compact and reliable machine, suitable for assembly operations, straightening, load tests, and part inspection. With a pressing force of 30 tons and a piston stroke of 380 mm, it is perfect for workshop applications and maintenance departments. The height-adjustable table, operated by chain and hydraulic cylinder, ensures great versatility, while the piston can be operated manually with a lever or via a sensitive hydraulic pump, stopping in any position. With an advance speed of 9.8 mm/sec, working speed of 3.57 mm/sec, and return speed of 18.11 mm/sec, the HWP 30 ensures speed and efficiency. The 1.5 kW motor and robust steel structure offer stability and durability, while its contained weight of 395 kg makes it easy to place in the workshop. Equipped with a pressure gauge and overload valve, it is the practical and professional choice for small to medium-sized jobs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the BHP, HWP, and BRHP QZ series in the Bernardo press range?
The HWP series is the column hydraulic workshop press: compact steel structure, sliding cylinder from above. With HWP 30t, it is suitable for bearing assembly/disassembly operations, shaft straightening, and crimping operations in mechanical workshops and industrial maintenance.
Does the HWP 30t force also apply at the minimum piston stroke?
The nominal HWP 30t force is the maximum force developed at the maximum pressure of the hydraulic system. At the beginning of the stroke (piston at the upper end of its travel), the force is the same — it is constant throughout the entire useful stroke. The included pressure gauge shows the pressure in bar: multiplying by the piston area gives the effective force in kN or tons.
Is the pressure gauge included as standard?
Yes — all BHP, HWP, and BRHP Bernardo presses include a pressure gauge for direct reading of the applied force. Essential for not exceeding the resistance of the pressed components (e.g., maximum interference of a bearing on the shaft) and for operations requiring a specific assembly force.
What foundation does it require?
Presses up to 100t are fixed to the floor with M12/M16 bolts on standard concrete (15–20 cm). For presses over 100t, consult a structural engineer to verify the floor's load-bearing capacity based on the base footprint. Customer support available in Italian.
Are spare parts and assistance available?
Original spare parts available with 3–5 business day shipping. Customer support available in Italian.
