Each　part　of　a　hydraulic　press　dissipates　a　large　amount　of　energy　when　energy　or　power　is　transmitted.　Therefore,　this　study　proposes　a　3-D　vertical　arrangement　structure　for　the　hydraulic　press　to　reduce　their　energy　dissipation.　In　the　proposed　structure,　the　aboveground　and　underground　spaces　are　comprehensively　utilized,　and　then　the　hydraulic　equipment　are　arranged　three-dimensionally　and　set　in　layers　according　to　the　functional　requirements.　Some　equipment　is　connected　directly　to　minimize　the　use　of　valves　and　pipelines　and　reduce　the　transmission　distance　of　hydraulic　energy　between　the　pump　station　and　the　actuator.　Furthermore,　a　method　for　scheduling　the　drive　system　in　the　above　structure　is　presented　to　share　a　transmission　zone　with　no　conflict　and　shorten　their　idle　time.　The　composition　of　each　zone　is　set　to　match　the　power　demand　of　each　operation　to　achieve　the　scheduling　schemes.　Finally,　the　proposed　scheme　is　applied　to　a　31.5　MN　hydraulic　press　as　a　case　study.　Results　showed　that　the　energy　efficiency　increased　from　43.95%　to　85.03%,　demonstrating　excellent　energy-saving　potential.
