Arbor press -- what is it used for?

[dalee]

Hi,

I have a 1 ton HF arbor press and while I don't use it every day, I think it's a must have. But arbor presses do have some draw backs. Biggest problem is the lack of daylight but they have really good feel for the work. Hydraulic presses tend to have good daylight but lack the control to get the best feel for the work.

I want to add a 3 ton arbor to my shop. But I wouldn't part with my little 1 tonner.
