flow rate on this valve is listed at 80 LPM -- is that enough for press and machine tool applications or do I need to look at something bigger?

For most press and machine tool setups, 80 litres per minute is a solid working capacity. This valve sits in the DG4V-3 series, which covers a broad range of industrial duty cycles, and that flow rating handles the majority of standard actuator and cylinder circuits found in those environments. If your system is running unusually high-volume demands continuously, you would want to size the circuit carefully, but for typical press and machine tool service, 80 LPM is well within a practical range.

Is this Vickers valve somethin' I can just bolt right on, or is there more to it than that?

Installation is generally straightforward, as it's designed to mount on industry-standard surfaces. However, always double-check your specific application to ensure compatibility.
