Simple and reliable tool for driveshaft cross joint assembly and staking
Use mechanical screw staking punching press PRK-2 for crimping and coring of driveshaft trunnions.
We designed staking punching press PRK-2 for assembly works and trunnion coring operations for repair and driveshaft production. As well as for other processes in which you need the pressing operation.
Puncheon is installed and also fixed in the housing on the faceplate of the vertical head of the press, corresponding to the yoke bearing diameter.
A yoke with a trunnion is installed in such a way, so that the axis of the yoke hole (and the crosspiece) matches the axis of the puncheon. In like manner, a lower stop is installed to the trunnion support.
To perform the pressing, turn the headwheel of the press head clockwise.
What’s more, with the help of the press, it is possible to process cardan shafts and other products with parameters different from those presented above, if this does not interfere with comfortable work.
The press is designed for work in repair shops, although it does not require any special knowledge for operation and maintenance.

High-Force Pressing System
- Ball screw mechanism design – High-efficiency ball screw pressing mechanism provides exceptional force transmission with extended service life for demanding u-joint operations. The ball screw design ensures precise force control while minimizing wear under continuous workshop use.
- Maximum compression force capability – 5500kg compression force capacity handles heavy-duty u-joint pressing operations including truck and commercial vehicle applications. The high force capability ensures reliable installation across diverse driveshaft sizes and joint types.
- Extraction force capability – 2000kg rupture force capacity enables removal of seized or corroded u-joints from driveshaft assemblies. The extraction capability provides comprehensive repair functionality for challenging workshop applications.
Workshop-Optimized Design
- Generous working area – 322×312×350mm working envelope accommodates diverse driveshaft assemblies and u-joint configurations with adequate clearance. The working area provides flexibility for various repair operations while maintaining precision alignment.
- Manual nib feeder system – Precision manual feeding mechanism ensures accurate positioning and quality control during u-joint stacking operations. The manual system provides operator control for optimal alignment while maintaining consistent pressing results.
- Multi-purpose pressing capability – Design accommodates u-joint assembly, replacement, and other pressing operations expanding utility beyond specific driveshaft applications. The versatility maximizes equipment utilization in diverse repair scenarios.
- No special knowledge operation – User-friendly design eliminates need for specialized training enabling immediate operation by standard workshop personnel. The straightforward operation reduces learning curve while maintaining professional results.
Precision Tooling and Accessories
- Centering housing for punches – Precision centering system ensures accurate punch alignment during pressing operations preventing damage to u-joints and driveshaft components. The centering design maintains quality while reducing operator skill requirements.
- Comprehensive punch set for driveshafts – Eight-piece punch set accommodates u-joint diameters from 20-31mm covering standard automotive and truck driveshaft applications. The complete set eliminates need for additional tooling while ensuring compatibility across vehicle types.
- Steering shaft punch set – Four-piece specialized punch set handles smaller u-joint diameters from 15-19mm for steering shaft applications. The dedicated set provides precision tooling for automotive steering system repair operations.
