Among the more than 100 pieces of equipment in our facility is an open back inclinable (OBI) gap press — one of the most widely used mechanical presses due in large part to its great versatility. ## OBI Press Features and Benefits We operate a number of OBI 22 – 110 presses, with nominal tonnage ratings that fall between 22 and 110 tons. Our single crankshaft OBI presses include flywheel, single gear, and double gear driven models. They feature a gap frame, which allows for an inclining function, used to increase production rates without sacrificing quality. We typically use our open back inclinable gap press for producing a range of [precision metal diaphragms](https://www.hudson-technologies.com/applications/metal-diaphragms/?hsLang=en); as a standalone manufacturer of metal diaphragms, both flat and corrugated, we make sure to utilize only the highest-quality machinery for their production. Diaphragms manufactured on our OBI press are used in a wide variety of applications; most commonly, they’re used as mechanical seals, in edge-welded bellows, and as pressure transducers. Our OBI press is also compatible with our green manufacturing process, which produces zero hazardous waste. All lubricants — including those used on our OBI press — are biodegradable, and our aqueous cleaning system is fully solvent-free. ## Work With Hudson Deep Draw Since our founding in 1940, [Hudson Deep Draw](https://www.hudson-technologies.com/faq/?hsLang=en) has been producing stamped and deep drawn parts for applications ranging from flow control to complex aerospace components. To ensure quality in everything we do, we maintain a vast fleet of state-of-the-art equipment. We have also developed a highly effective quality standard [green manufacturing process](https://www.hudson-technologies.com/about-us/green-manufacturer?hsLang=en), keep talented design engineers on staff, and use Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and other test lab resources to meet stringent [quality standard](https://www.hudson-technologies.com/capabilities/quality-certifications?hsLang=en) guidelines.
