    Abstract: A crosshead (1) for use as an upper and/or lower beam (50, 60) in a press (100), in particular an open-die forging press or a closed-die forging press, comprises an upper chord (2) and a lower chord (5) connected to the upper chord (2) via a first and a second lateral upright (3, 4). The first lateral upright (3) is arranged in the region of a first distal end (6) and the second lateral upright (4) is arranged in the region of a second distal end (7) of the crosshead (1). The crosshead (1) has a truss support structure (8) between the two lateral uprights (3, 4) by which the upper chord (2) and the lower chord (5) are additionally connected to one another.

    Abstract: A method for monitoring and changing the position of at least one component, more particularly a running bar, slidingly guided within a press frame between abutments of the press frame is disclosed. A central alignment of the component within the press frame is continuously measured and the alignment of the component within the press frame is corrected as a function of the acquired measurement result by preferably automatically adjustable guide elements of the sliding guides of the press. The central alignment of the slidingly guided component within the press frame is measured by the sensing of the location of at least one, preferably two, reference points of the slidingly guided component preferably in a plane extending perpendicularly to the longitudinal center axis of the press. A press having automatically adjustable guide elements and means for controlling the guide elements as a function of the measured position of the component.
