The structure stiffness of presses has great effects on the forming precision of workpieces, especially in near-net or net shape forming. Conventionally the stiffness specification of presses is empirically determined, re-sulting in poor designs with insufficient or over sufficient stiffness of press structures. In this paper, an approach for the structure design of hydraulic presses is proposed, which is forming-precision-driven and can make presses cost-effective by lightweight optimization. The approach consists of five steps:(1)the determination of the press stiff-ness specification in terms of the forming precision requirement of workpieces;(2)the conceptual design of the press structures according to the stiffness and workspace specifications, and the structure configuration of the press;(3)the prototype design of the press structures by equivalently converting the conceptual design to proto-types;(4)the selection of key structure parameters by sensitivity analysis of the prototype design; and(5)the opti-mization of the prototype design. The approach is demonstrated and validated through a case study of the structure design of a 100 MN hydraulic press.
