  • Abstract
    The use of an ignitron contactor panel for direct press drives for large draw presses reduces the impact of shock loading to the motor, gears, keyways, and other mechanical parts of the drive. Maintenance requirements are thereby reduced. These improvements are obtained at a relatively minor additional cost of the initial installation.
