Bernardo BHP 150 – Hydraulic Press with Sliding Cylinder
The Bernardo BHP 150 hydraulic press is a high-capacity machine designed for heavy-duty work and industrial applications. With a pressing force of 150 tons and a piston stroke of 400 mm, it is suitable for straightening axles, shafts, and inserting/removing bushings, bearings, and bolts. The 1100 mm clearance between uprights and the 635 mm work surface provide ample space for large workpieces. The laterally sliding cylinder and height-adjustable work table offer maximum operational flexibility. With feed speeds of 8.5 mm/sec and return speeds of 10.5 mm/sec, the BHP 150 ensures fast and efficient operations. The welded box-section steel structure ensures stability and long-lasting durability, while the 5.5 kW motor allows for high and continuous performance. Equipped with an integrated pressure gauge, overload valve, and included V-blocks, it is the ideal choice for workshops and industries requiring a powerful and professional hydraulic press.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the BHP, HWP, and BRHP QZ series in the Bernardo press range?
The BHP series has a sliding cylinder: the piston moves downwards while the table remains fixed. The BHP 100t force is applied from top to bottom with a long stroke — suitable for pressing bearings onto long shafts, straightening structural elements, and vertical load testing.
Is the BHP 100t force also available at the minimum piston stroke?
The nominal BHP 100t force is the maximum force developed at the maximum hydraulic system pressure. At the beginning of the stroke (piston at top dead center), 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 Bernardo BHP, HWP, and BRHP presses include a pressure gauge for direct reading of the applied force. Essential for not exceeding the resistance of pressed components (e.g., maximum interference of a bearing on the shaft) and for operations requiring a specific assembly force.
What foundation is required?
Presses up to 100t are fastened to the floor with M12/M16 bolts on standard concrete (15–20 cm). For presses over 100t, verify the floor's load-bearing capacity with a structural engineer 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.
