Lange Grinding & Machining uses its 350 Ton Straightening Press to support heavy-duty part correction, repair work, and industrial component preparation. This equipment gives our team the force needed to help correct large parts, plates, weldments, shafts, bars, fabricated components, and machined workpieces that may need attention before grinding, machining, inspection, or reinstallation.
This Equipment page focuses on the machine itself and how it supports Lange’s broader machining and grinding operation. If you are looking for the service overview, visit our straightening press services page for more details about out-of-flat plate correction, industrial part straightening, and when press work may be needed.
350 Ton Straightening Press Capacity
The 350 Ton Straightening Press gives Lange the ability to apply controlled force to heavy industrial components. This equipment is useful when a part is bent, bowed, warped, distorted, or needs to be corrected before another operation can be completed properly.
According to the related straightening press capability, Lange can generally press pieces up to 6.5″ thick. This gives our team useful in-house capacity for large plates, weldments, repair parts, fabricated components, and industrial workpieces that require correction as part of a larger machining or grinding workflow.

Supporting Lange’s Straightening Press Capability
This machine directly supports Lange’s straightening press services. Customers often come to Lange with parts that need more than one operation, and straightening can be an important step before grinding, milling, machining, or inspection.
The Capabilities page explains the service, common customer problems, and when straightening press work may be needed. This Equipment page explains the 350 Ton Straightening Press as one of the key machines Lange uses to support that work.
Useful Before Grinding, Machining, or Inspection
Large industrial parts do not always arrive flat, straight, or ready for the next operation. A component may be distorted from welding, heavy use, handling, heat, stress, or previous machining. When that happens, straightening press work may help prepare the part for additional processing.
Lange’s 350 Ton Straightening Press can support projects that also require surface grinding, Blanchard grinding, planer milling, CNC machining, or quality control. Keeping these related services under one roof can help reduce handoffs and make the repair or production process easier to manage.
Part of Lange’s Heavy Industrial Equipment Lineup
The 350 Ton Straightening Press is one part of Lange’s larger equipment lineup for heavy industrial machining and grinding. Our shop also includes Blanchard grinders, surface grinders, planer mills, CNC machining equipment, inspection equipment, and large-part handling capacity.
This combination allows Lange to support projects that may require several steps before a part is complete. A workpiece may need to be pressed, ground, machined, inspected, and finished before it is ready to return to service or move into final assembly.
Applications for the 350 Ton Straightening Press
This equipment is commonly used to support heavy industrial parts that need correction before or after additional processing. It can be useful for repair work, rebuild projects, production support, and part preparation when a component needs to be brought closer to the required condition.
Typical work may involve large plates, weldments, fabricated components, shafts, bars, machine parts, and industrial components that have moved during use, fabrication, welding, handling, or previous machining.
