Built for Accuracy. Designed for Production.

H Series (Hydraulic)
H Series
Hydraulic Hot Stamping & Heat Transfer Presses
The Hastings H Series consists of full hydraulic presses designed for hot stamping and heat transfer applications requiring maximum tonnage, precise pressure control, and consistent force throughout the entire stroke.
These systems are engineered for large-format applications, rigid materials, and production environments where uniform pressure and repeatability are critical to achieving high-quality results.
Available in Hot Stamping and Heat Transfer Configurations
All H Series presses are available in both:
- Hot Stamping (RL) – Foil-based marking for durable, high-pressure, and metallic finishes
- Heat Transfer (HT) – Multicolor image transfer using precision indexing and registration
Important:
Heat transfer machines can also perform hot stamping.
Hot stamping-only machines cannot be used for heat transfer.
This flexibility allows each hydraulic platform to be configured based on application requirements without changing the core machine.

Tooling and Automation Integration
Hastings designs and manufactures complete tooling systems and can integrate H Series presses into automated production environments.
Available integration options include:
- Custom tooling and dies
- Large-format nesting fixtures
- Multi-head configurations
- Robotic loading and unloading systems
- Conveyor-based production lines
- Vision inspection systems
- Auto-eject mechanisms
Designed for Maximum Force Applications
H Series presses are built for production environments where pneumatic and hydra-pneumatic systems are not sufficient.
Typical applications include:
- Large-format decoration and marking
- Thick or rigid materials
- High-pressure transfer requirements
- Applications requiring uniform pressure across large die surfaces
The hydraulic system ensures consistent pressure across the entire stamping cycle, improving transfer quality and reducing variation.

Selecting the Right
Hydraulic Press
Choosing the appropriate H Series model depends on:
- Required stamping force (tonnage)
- Imprint size and die surface area
- Material type and rigidity
- Production volume and cycle requirements
- Automation and integration needs
Hastings can assist in evaluating your application and recommending the appropriate system configuration.
