Abstract:
The invention relates to a method of controlling a ceramic and/or metal powder press (1) for pressing a compressible material (6), wherein at least one electromotive drive (15, 16; 20, 21), which adjustsat least one punch (5; 4) along a pressing direction, is controlled in such a manner that the drive (15, 16; 20, 21) moves the punch (5; 4) along a setpoint positioning path (as1) and the drive is readjusted if it deviates from the setpoint positioning path (as1), wherein a measured force (F11, F12) acting on the compressible material (6), the punch (4) or its supporting components (17-19), is used as at least one control variable for readjustment. The invention also relates to a ceramic and/or metal powder press (1) configured to carry out the method.
