In a sheet metal forming press, the shape to be formed is hemispherical cup of radius 15 cm in 2mm thick mild
steel sheet. The force required to deform sheet is 8 kN. The forming hammer should approach job from a distance
of 30 cm. The production rate required is 240 components/hr.
Calculate and suggest the following specifications of the various hydraulic components used:
a. Hydraulic cylinder (bore & length);
b. Pump pressure and flow rate;
c. Electric motor HP considering 75% pump efficiency;
d. Reservoir size; and
e. Size of pump inlet and discharge tubing.

- Consider the extrusion of a cylindrical billet, and compute the following. Assume the starting billet to have a length of 0.3m and a diameter of 15cm. This is extruded into a cylindrical product that is 3cm in diameter and 7.5cm long. Neglecting the areas on the two ends, compute the ratio between the product surface area (wraparound cylinder) and the surface area of the starting billet. How would this ratio change if the product were a square with the same corss-sectional area as that of the 3cm diameter circle?arrow_forwardA process currently services an average of 59 customers per day. Observations in recent weeks show that its utilization is about 90 percent, allowing for just a 10 percent capacity cushion. If demand is expected to be 70 percent of the current level in five years and management wants to have a capacity cushion of just 4 percent, what capacity requirement should be planned? The needed capacity requirement is nothing customers per day.
