Hydraulic Straightening Press: High Accuracy Correction for Bent Shafts, Bars and Profiles
A bent shaft or bar is not scrap if you have the right press. The ELMALI Hydraulic Straightening Press, listed on MachineWorld.biz under product code EHP and described as a high accuracy straightening press, applies a controlled hydraulic force at exactly the right point to bring a workpiece back to straight. Built by ELMALI Machinery in Konya, it combines a rigid press body, a long supporting bed and an operator control panel, as the product image shows.

What Is a Hydraulic Straightening Press?
A straightening press corrects bending and runout in long parts such as shafts, bars, tubes and profiles. The workpiece rests on two supports, its deviation is measured, and a hydraulic ram pushes on the high point so the part is bent slightly beyond its yield point and settles back toward a straight line. Industry sources describe the same principle in shaft and tube straightening equipment, where the part is often rotated to find the point of maximum runout before the ram is positioned there.
Hydraulics suits this work because force and ram travel can be controlled finely and held steadily. The operator can apply small corrections gradually, measure again and repeat, instead of risking one heavy stroke. That is what gives a straightening press its reputation for accuracy: the machine and the measurement work together, pass after pass.
What the Product Image Shows
The studio-style photo shows a blue press body carrying the ELMALI logo, topped by a light-colored paneled housing. The hydraulic ram sits at the front of the column, above a long white bed with side rails. Orange components are mounted along the rails, and on the right stands a control pedestal with a display screen. A bed of this kind is generally associated with long workpieces.
The listing gives only the short description “High accuracy straightening press” and does not publish capacity, bed length, stroke, speed or the measuring system. We therefore describe what the machine is and does, without invented figures. Please confirm every technical value, and which workpieces are supported, with the manufacturer before ordering.

- Metal processing lines in automotive, agriculture and general engineering
Tips for Accurate Straightening
Measure before you press, and measure again after every correction. Support the part at two points on either side of the bend, place the ram directly over the high point and work in small steps, because the metal springs back and a slight overbend is usually needed. Protect finished surfaces with soft contact pads, and avoid correcting the same spot many times, as repeated bending can fatigue some materials. Hardened or brittle parts may crack, so seek advice before straightening them.
Part of a Complete Heavy Press Range
ELMALI Machinery builds sheet metal working machines in Konya and has supplied machines to over 100 countries. Alongside special presses, its range serves sectors from automotive and agriculture to shipbuilding, aerospace and defense, so one partner can support many parts of your production.
Why Choose ELMALI Machinery?
With more than 40 years of experience in sheet metal working machinery, ELMALI designs the press around your product rather than forcing your product to fit a press. We listen first and recommend the configuration that fits your work, and technical guidance helps keep your machine productive for years.
How to Choose the Right Machine
- Type and size of workpieces: shafts, bars, tubes or profiles
- Maximum length, diameter and weight of the workpiece
- Required straightness tolerance and measuring method
- Force needed, based on material and cross-section
- Manual, semi-automatic or automatic operation, and display needs
- Production volume, floor space and power supply
Maintenance for Long Service Life
Check the hydraulic oil level and cleanliness, replace filters on schedule and inspect hoses, seals and fittings for leaks. Clean and lubricate the guides and rails so the movable parts slide freely, and verify the display, sensors and measuring devices regularly. Accurate straightening depends on accurate measurement, so keep every indicator in good condition.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a straightening press used for? It corrects bends and runout in long parts such as shafts, bars, tubes and profiles by applying a controlled force at the high point.
How accurate is the ELMALI straightening press? The listing describes it as a high accuracy straightening press, but no tolerance value is published. Please ask the manufacturer for the achievable straightness for your part.
Can any bent part be straightened? Many ductile steel parts can, but very hard, brittle or heavily damaged parts may crack. Send us the material and drawing for advice.
