Home Services Heavy Machinery & Industrial Equipment Shipping Press Machine Transport Services

A press machine, often simply called a press, is a powerful device engineered to apply force to a workpiece to shape, cut, punch, bend, or assemble materials. These machines are ubiquitous in manufacturing, metalworking, and industrial applications, ranging from large automotive plants to small businesses specializing in custom fabrication.

Whether you are using a heat press for transfer printing on caps or a massive hydraulic unit for forming steel, precision and power are key.
Transporting a press machine can be logistically challenging due to its dimensions and weight, but Atlantic Project Cargo is dedicated to assisting you. We offer dependable and affordable transport services to ensure the safe, timely delivery of your equipment! Request your free quote today!

Types of Press Machines We Ship

As a dedicated freight forwarder, we facilitate the transport of different types of these machines. This category covers a vast range of equipment.

By Type of Construction

Mechanical

These use gears, flywheels, and crankshafts for operations. They are known for their speed and constitute a reliable choice for high-volume runs.

By Type of Construction

Hydraulic

They have hydraulic cylinders for applying force and are suitable for heavy-duty tasks where control over pressure throughout the stroke is required.

By Type of Construction

Pneumatic

Use compressed air for lighter and faster applications. These are often used where precision and speed are needed for smaller parts.

By Frame Structure

C-Frame

Have an open-sided frame, allowing easy access to materials. This design makes it easier to load parts and is perfect for small businesses.

By Frame Structure

H-Frame

They provide high rigidity and are used for heavy-duty operations. This build minimizes deflection under high loads.

By Frame Structure

Gap Frame

Similar to the C-frame but with an extended opening, allowing the machine to handle larger workpieces.

How Much Does it Cost to Ship Press Machines?

While there is no universal price, we can outline the primary factors that influence the final cost of shipping:

Mode of transportation: Air charters command a higher price point compared to ocean or ground transportation options

Distance: Shipping a press machine across the country is generally more economical than transporting it overseas

Additional expenses: These may include insurance premiums, special permits, customs duties, and fees for heavy loads

Size and Weight: The heavier the machinery and the larger the curve of the frame, the higher the shipping expense

Season: The shipping industry experiences high and low seasons, which directly impact the final cost

International Shipping of Press Machines

Roll-on-Roll-off (Ro-Ro)

This is a streamlined method of shipping where machinery is driven directly onto and off the vessel

Full-Container Load (FCL)

This implies that the entire container is exclusively reserved for your shipment. It is a favored choice for shipping sensitive control panels and accessories due to the protection it offers

Flat Rack

An excellent choice for transporting machines, particularly those that are oversized or have dimensions exceeding standard container limits (e.g., machines with wide sides)

Air Cargo

The most rapid method for shipping a press machine or its critical parts, though it comes at a higher cost

International Shipping Compliance, Regulations, and Restrictions for Press Machines

Regulations vary significantly by nation, but the most common requirements include:

  • Export control: Adherence to ITAR, EAR, and similar frameworks
  • Import regulations: Tariffs & duties, non-tariff barriers, safety standards, and customs clearance procedures
  • Transport regulations: Accurate shipping documentation, dangerous goods protocols, weight and dimensions restrictions, and insurance mandates
  • Technical standards: Variances in safety standards, emissions, and noise regulations (ensuring the machine falls within legal limits)

Press Machine Moving Services Across The Country

Flatbed

These trailers provide a foundational, open platform for securing and hauling press machines efficiently

Step-Deck

Featuring a lowered rear platform, this trailer type offers the necessary clearance to transport machinery legally without necessitating special height permits

RGN

The most significant benefit of RGN trailers is their capacity to accommodate high loads and massive steel frames

Restrictions on Moving Press Machines

Moving equipment over extended distances involves various restrictions and regulations, including:

  • Road regulations: Adherence to speed limits, width and height restrictions, and road use permits
  • Transport regulations: Requirements for oversized load permits, escort vehicles, precise route planning, and liability insurance
  • Additional regulations: Seasonal travel restrictions, weight limits per axle, and specific local municipal regulations
