Josam Frame Press | Frame Repair Systems for Heavy-Duty Vehicles

Description

The JOSAM alignment system is founded on the principle of l-beams cast in the workshop floor. Combined with the JOSAM service pit it makes the ideal working area for straightening heavy and light trucks, trailers and buses. Presses and other tools are easily anchored to the floor rails, enabling both horizontal and vertical repairs to be carried out.

This system works hydraulically and is manufactured in two versions with a press capacity of 20-40 tons respectively.

Straightening Trolleys
Josam press/pull trolleys with 20 tons press capacity. The equipment is designed to be as lightweight as possible, which is why it is constructed entirely of aluminum alloy. This also makes it very strong and durable. The trolleys are mounted on wheels, making them easy to handle by just one mechanic. The counterstay trolley is a simpler model without a built-in cylinder press.

C-clamps
These are used for straightening and riveting of truck frames, etc. The models range from 10 to 40 tons. The hydraulic clamps are adapted to easily access local deformities and straighten them. The larger clamps offer riveting capabilities and are equipped with a lifting device compatible with traverse cranes.

Vertical Presses and Pumps
For vertical straightening, our vertical presses are used. The equipment is operated with hydraulic pumps. They are all equipped with wheels or handles in order to make them easier to move. Vertical presses have a press force of 20 tons and a lift height ranging from 555-1310 mm (approx. 22-51 inches).

Chain Attachment/Anchoring
For certain types of straightening, usually vertical bends and twists, the Josam vertical press and chain attachments with anchoring equipment, chains and hooks should be used. The frame hooks are manufactured from aluminum alloy and are available with a number of models.

The Josam frame straightening system is based on the use of I-beams cast flush with the workshop floor. Straightening work is to be done without ramps, and the workshop can be used for other purposes.

Straightening trolleys, floor attachments, etc. are anchored to the floor beams. Furthermore, cab and bus straightening equipment from Josam can also be anchored securely into these floor racks.
