Bernardo WK 30 FH Pro – Professional 30-ton Workshop Press
The Bernardo WK 30 FH Pro is a professional workshop press with a pressing force of 30 tons, suitable for heavy-duty work in mechanical workshops and maintenance departments. It features a laterally sliding cylinder, allowing versatile use across the entire width of the table, and automatic piston return via an integrated spring. Thanks to the self-adjusting hydraulics, piston advancement is effortless, while the standard foot pedal included allows for hands-free operation when positioning the workpiece. The robust welded steel structure ensures high stability and long durability. With the possibility of expanding the range of use via the optional set of pressure pins (10 pcs.), the WK 30 FH Pro is the versatile, powerful, and reliable choice for straightening, pressing, bending, and assembling large mechanical components.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between WK (manual) and PWK (pneumatic)?
WK presses have manual hydraulic operation — the operator pumps the lever to pressurize the cylinder. PWK presses are operated by compressed air at 6–8 bar: the piston descends automatically by pressing the pedal, with constant speed and force regardless of the operator. PWK presses are more productive for repetitive series operations; WK presses are more economical and do not require a pneumatic system.
Can the WK / PWK press press bearings and bushings?
Yes. This is the main operation for which they are designed: insertion and removal of bearings, bushings, plain bearings, pins, and inserts. With the correct force (calculated based on the diameter and interference of the coupling) the operation is safe and precise. For H7/p6 couplings on steel: force ≈ 1–3 kN per mm of diameter.
Is the manometer included as standard?
Yes — all WK and PWK Bernardo presses include a manometer for direct reading of the applied force in tons. Essential for not exceeding the maximum force of the coupling and avoiding damage to pressed components.
Are spare parts available?
Original Bernardo spare parts (seals, valves, manometers) available with 3–5 working days shipping. Customer support in Italian available.
What foundation does it require?
WK and PWK presses do not require special foundations — a standard industrial floor (15–20 cm concrete) is sufficient. Versions up to 50T are fixed to the floor with standard M12 bolts.
