| dbo:abstract | Das Heavy Press Program (deutsch: Schwere-Presse-Programm) war ein US-amerikanisches Industrieprojekt, dass auf Bestreben der United States Air Force zur Entwicklung der größten Extrusions- und Schmiedepressen der Welt führen sollte. Die gebauten Maschinen erweiterten die Kapazitäten der US-Rüstungsindustrie zur Herstellung von Strukturteilen für die Luftfahrt aus Leichtmetallen wie Aluminium und Magnesium. Das Projekt begann während des Kalten Krieges im Jahr 1950 und endete bereits 1957 nach der Fertigstellung von sechs Extrusions- und vier Schmiedepressen mit Umformkräften von bis zu 50.000 Amerikanischen Tonnen (~45.400 metrische Tonnen). Die Kosten für den Bau der Pressen, von denen bis heute acht in Gebrauch sind, beliefen sich zum damaligen Zeitpunkt auf 279 Millionen US-Dollar. Größere Pressen finden sich heute in Japan, Frankreich, Russland und China. (de) The Heavy Press Program was a Cold War-era program of the United States Air Force to build the largest forging presses and extrusion presses in the world. These machines greatly enhanced the US defense industry's capacity to forge large complex components out of light alloys, such as magnesium and aluminum. The program began in 1950 and concluded in 1957 after construction of four forging presses and six extruders, at an overall cost of $279 million. Eight of them are still in operation today, manufacturing structural parts for military and commercial aircraft. They still hold the records for size in North America, though they have since been surpassed by presses in Japan, France, Russia and China. The program produced ten machines, listed below.
