Industrial presses use a ram to shear, punch, form, or assemble metals or other materials by cutting, shaping, or using dies attached to slides. There are many different types of industrial presses, such as universal presses, hydraulic presses, and horizontal presses. Horizontal presses are industrial presses that allow fabricators or ironworkers to shear, punch, bend, scroll, and press thousands of different parts. An industrial press is typically constructed with a cast-iron frame for stability and rigidity. An industrial drill press can be used for producing ferrite cores, nuclear fuel pellets, precision powder metal parts, electronic components, as well as simple applications such as, balls for pens, detergents, cosmetics, and healthcare products.

A punch press machine is a type of machine press that uses a set of dies under pressure to put holes into materials to shape metal parts. Industrial presses, such as the stamping press, operates stamping and other types of dies by powering the opening and closing of die sets, which are composed of punches and die blocks. Die sets assemble upper and lower die shoes, guide pins, bushings, and punch and die holders. A metal stamping press produces metal parts by pressing a metal blank with a powerful die into a predetermined desired shape or pattern.

A turret punch press is a type of press with an open frame and a turret that contains multiple punches. Turret punch presses, typically numerically controlled, are mainly used to perform shearing operations. Industrial presses, such as the turret press, can allow metal to be weaved together by creating tabs with a lanced dimple that, when mated, falls into another dimple of an opposing tab. Depending on the application, the tool can eliminate welding or other joining processes. Some industrial presses are driven by mechanical power, such as the mechanical punch press, which can be driven by flywheels, cranks, or clutches.
