What is run by air on a servo/ac press? Lift/lower, frame locks and sq/fld locks?

Depending on press, there may be no lift and lower

For presses with tables that do lift they are usually air, though there are some with servo lift.

2M has one as does Anatol (at least on the Vindicator not sure if on other presses too).  Not sure if Rick is offering the RPM with the servo lift but I know Mariusz would put it on one if Rick asked.

Sorry, I didn't mean offered, I meant in production.

Was also meant as a small jab at Michael and Brian. ;)

are the newer RPMs servo?  Mine isn't.  It's got a big ol' lift cylinder.

So is the chopper downward pressure still controlled by air? And the stroke is electric? I think I am confusing myself.

That's correct Gerry.  Up and down is air but the back and forth is via motor.

Word on the street is the brand MX was a complete disaster. Not from the lift yet but other index issues. Fat Bobby thing.
Brand PX the big ones have a servo lift that works quite well.
Yes Anatol has the Vindicator and he Volt.
I wonder if they make servo mattress springs for better support?

Sorry for the two brand X but figure you can figure which is which.

Just passed 200k prints on MX with no problems..I would even call Mariusz up and buy again if we became a two press shop.  It is a great press believe it or not.  Now the salesman?...the fact that he is no longer selling them should be all you need to know.  That is about all I will say without opening up a can of worms that would only be valuable for popcorn eating and bug eyed emoticons (something that TSB smartly tries to avoid--something I appreciate).
