Cryofracture Presses
Cryofracture Hydraulic and Servo Presses
Specially designed to dispose of explosives safely and efficiently.
Macrodyne’s cryofracture presses are engineered for one purpose: to safely and efficiently destroy munitions and support demilitarization.
These systems have already been deployed at numerous army sites. Available in both fixed and mobile configurations, they can be transported directly to your location to minimize the capital costs associated with building new facilities.
Each press is built with deep slides for precision guiding, parallel slide motion, and enhanced eccentric load capacity. Structural elements are optimized through finite element analysis (FEA), ensuring maximum stiffness and torsional rigidity to withstand both working loads and potential explosive forces.
