Machine press using a hydraulic cylinder to generate a compressive force
A hydraulic press is a machine press using a hydraulic cylinder to generate a compressive force. It uses the hydraulic equivalent of a mechanical lever, and was also known as a Bramah press after the inventor, Joseph Bramah. He invented and was issued a patent on this press in 1795. As Bramah installed toilets and developed the modern flush toilet, he studied existing literature on the motion of fluids to develop the press.
