I would make a good mangle for pressing your pants, but it would be
hell on buttons.

Electric motor and transmission on top ! Wow
What a baby that one is.

Any thing come with it - dies or plates ?

What color are you thinking of painting it - looks
like it is varnish oil coated now.

Think of some bad ass type - either pink, Hot pink or Camo.

I have a spare surface grinder - three phase 220/380.
I35 isn't but a hundred or so miles from here. :-)

I used a press sort of like that, only it had matching top and bottom
plates with T-slots for tools. All the hydraulics were on top. It was
about 12' tall, platens about 4'x4'. We ran RTM and RIM experiments
in it.

I'll never forget the day some guys dieseled the peroxide cylinder.
Hadn't fully purged the line, so the trapped air heated to the
decomposition temperature of the peroxide, and the drive cylinder left
sunlight streaming through the roof when it took off. We found it
later up on top of that press.

But why is it made with a Bosch injection pump?

An injection pump is just a small-volume, high-pressure pump, Ig.

Obviously, they weren't concerned with travel rate on that unit.

I suppose because they needed rate control and could get a used one
cheap, rather than buying an expensive new variable-displacement pump.
Is there an adjustable pressure regulator on the high pressure side?

Wifey will simply adore that...for her leaf pressing.
How timely for the mid-October gold and red leaves falling!
