Design of 20 Ton Hydraulic Press Machine for Flaring Operation

The aim of this project is to design hydraulic press to facilitate the ease of operation to manufacture the smaller parts in bulk. In current scenario time constraint is crucial part for completion of any production process. Thus, with the aid of automation the production time can be reduced as well as high degree of accuracy can be achieved easily. One more advantage is that human effort will be all aviated thus attempt has been made to provide the smooth and rapid functioning of press work with the help of hydraulic system. Hydraulic press is a device which uses hydraulic cylinder to generate the compressive force. The aim of this project is to make the special purpose machine for flaring operation on inlet sleeve which is used in Mahindra blazzo exhaust system. Previously there was no such machine available which is capable of clamping as well as flaring automatically. In previous case holding was accomplished mechanically, as large force is required for flaring operation, mechanical clamping was unable to sustain large amount of force which lead to damage of parts due to slipping. In order to overcome the above circumstances there is need to design hydraulic press.
