Robert Taylor, thanks a ton man. I’ve been searching for a chart like this. It definitely is 3200# . I’m good with my rigging now that this is confirmed.
 

George, I am in northern Maryland and the press is in PA.

I am familiar with rigging, have a tandem trailer capable of #7500. I’m estimating press weighs #2500-3500. I’ll be fine with my forklift once back at the shop. The guy I bought it from guesstimated #2500. I think a bit more. It stands 7’ tall. It’s a beast.

I fell in love with it. Had to have it. I have a forging hammer and 25 ton hydraulic coal iron press already. I have moved many pcs of equipment in my 35 years.

thanks for any help.

here is my press, it looks like 2 lead ins. It is,  as in my above description, frozen in the ground a few hours north. Very soon it will be at my shop. I am trying to figure out my rigging needs. I would need it’s weight figured so this is why I am asking for info.

I think 2 lead- ins

This is my purchase from about a month ago. It’s been living outside for 20 years. It’s currently frozen in the ground. Spring is very near. I am curious about how it is rated as far as tonage.   I have a 6 ton in the shop already and am familiar with its capabilities.  The ram screw is pretty steep, this Bliss #3 is a massive machine.

I have contacted several industrial machinery people and not much info as of yet. Any info is helpful…

Germans, British and Americans playing nicely together, three distinctly different patterns, it doesn’t matter which one, you always have to improvise and adapt.

I just purchased an e.w. bliss #3 fly press. Does anyone know the weight of these machines? How about an estimated tonage?
