Design Optimization of Frame of Mechanical Press Machine

Abstract

Power presses are used for the simple, accurate, and economical production of large quantities of articles quickly, accurately, and economically from the cold working of mild steel and other ductile materials. The components produced range over an extremely wide field and are used throughout the industry. Sometimes the pressings may be complicated and more than one pressing operation may be required. The press purpose is to shift one or more sources and movements to a tool or to die to shape or blanch a piece of work. Press design calls for the application of special knowledge about the production process. The press is designed either to perform a specific process or for primarily universal use. The manufacturing process for the metal formation is almost chip less. To perform these tasks Press tools are used. Job component deformation to the desired size is achieved by applying pressure. Presses are regarded as the best and most efficient way of shaping sheet metal into finished products. Pneumatic presses are widely used for operations such as punching, grinding, molding, clinching, blanking, deep drawing, and metal shaping.
