Caronno Pertusella, Italy, March 4, 2026\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013\u00a0CANNON has been selected to supply two top-pushing 1200-ton short stroke compression molding presses to Taylor Engineering & Plastics, allowing TEP to enter new sectors while offering existing customers broader process choices. The addition of these presses will strengthen TEP\u2019s position as one of Europe\u2019s most versatile molding specialists. They will allow the company to produce large, durable, and complex components in medium-to-high production volumes, complementing its capabilities and driving further demand for TEP\u2019s in-house painting and finishing operations in the automotive, EV, agriculture and earth-moving sectors.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cThis is a landmark investment for Taylor Engineering & Plastics and a major step forward in expanding our manufacturing capabilities,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0said Scott Taylor, Managing Director at TEP.\u00a0\u201cThe new CANNON presses will allow us to support new market sectors, including transport infrastructure, rail and construction, while giving our existing customers even more process choice with a single trusted supplier. Our relationship with CANNON dates back nearly five decades, with the companies working together since 1977. This latest project strengthens that partnership, with CANNON once again providing custom-engineered machinery specifically designed to meet TEP\u2019s exact production requirements.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n With more than 60 years of expertise in hydraulic press engineering and over 35 years specializing in high-tonnage short-stroke presses, CANNON continues to set the benchmark for innovation. A pioneer in short-stroke presses since the early 1990s, CANNON expanded its portfolio with the introduction of the top-pushing short stroke press. Today, CANNON is the only manufacturer on the market to offer all three short-stroke press concepts to its customers.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cOur short-stroke presses are engineered to guarantee proper stiffness and good precision, features that have a direct effect on part quality,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0said Enrico Schinelli, Sales Manager Composites at CANNON Ergos.\u00a0\u201cThey are specifically designed for high flexibility and short cycle times for mass production. Tilting and shuttle tables allow for fast and proper operations on the mold, while automated loading and unloading permit shorter open mold times. In addition, our presses are best-in-class with regard to energy consumption, precision parameter control and state-of-the-art parallelism control, and simple integration with robots, dosing units and molds.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Caronno Pertusella, Italy, March 4, 2026\u00a0\u2013\u00a0CANNON has been selected to supply two top-pushing 1200-ton short stroke compression molding presses to Taylor Engineering & Plastics, allowing TEP to enter new sectors while offering existing customers broader process choices.
