Person gives an idea of scale for a hydraulic press. Unfortunately the "team" is all laid to rest.

Presses like these shaped heated raw steel ingots into "forgings" in a manner similar to a blacksmith hammering iron with his hammer. Pressing heated steel changes its molecular structure, yielding tougher material that generally can take shock and stress better. The ability to do forgings at large scale is what enabled many of our most massive mechanical achievements.

[A book I have states this was just a forming press in the weldment shop, not for forging.]

Believe it or not, this is actually a fairly small press!
