6,000 ton Ajax Hot Forging Press

(Rebuilt)

The press was originally serial no. 4995 and was built for Sumitomo Heavy Industries and later owned by International Crankshaft in Georgetown, KY. ICI traded the press in for a new 7000 ton in 2000. Since then, the press components have been stored inside the Ajax building. Some were sold as used components and these will be replaced with new parts in the rebuilt machine.
