Mechanical power presses
• OSHA 1910.217 is the vertical
regulation
• OSHA 1910.212, general requirement;
1910.219 MPTA
• ANSI B11.1 - 1998 for best safety
practices
• 350,000 in the U.S.
– Full revolution clutch since 1857
– Part revolution clutch since 1927

Capacity
• 1/4 to bench-top to 5000 lbs.
• Smaller one likely to be Gap (C) Frame
– If inclinable, OBI, if not incliniable, OBS
• Larger ones tend to be straight side frame
– 4 columns from bed (bottom) to crown
(top)
• Distinctive features: flywheel, crankshaft,
clutch, brake, ram (slide) goes up and
down

Full vs. Part Revolution
Clutch?
• Is an air line going to the clutch?
• If yes, it’s a part revolution clutch press
• If no, then look for an operating rod coming down the side of machine to identify it as a full revolution clutch

Modes of operation for mechanical
power press
• Inch: Short hops of ram used for
setup, maintenance, but not for
production
• Single stroke: Often hand fed,
sometimes with H.I.D. feeding.
Safeguarding Devices most common
• Continuous: Makes many cycles
without stopping using an automatic
feed & coil stock. Sging: Guards
most common
![Page 16: Mechanical Power Presses - libvolume2.xyzlibvolume2.xyz/biotechnology/semester3/introductiontounitoperation… · Mechanical power presses and their controls -(full revolution clutch)](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040601/5e8ec7786bf59104a051afb3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

operations
• Automatics or blankers
• Coil stock with
automatic feeds
• Payoff reels or cradles
to unwind
• Continuous mode

Secondary operations?
• Single-stroke mode of operation
• Manually fed - one at a time
• Often use Hands-in-Die Feeding
• Hand feeding tools are the BSP
• Cycle initiation can be hand or
foot
• Ergonomic issues if high
repetition

Types of mechanical
presses
• Two general frame
configurations

• Similar to “C” clamp in appearance
• Three subcategories
– OBI (Open Back Inclinable)
– Gap Press (OBS)
– Horn Press

General frame configurations (cont’d)
• Straight side frame
– Used on most presses that can
develop a maximum rated
tonnage of 20 tons or more
• Consist of bed with a four corner
post arrangement called
uprights.

Types of mechanical power
presses (cont’d)
• Functional type
• Operating characteristics
– Full revolution clutch
– Part revolution clutch
• Electric motor is primary drive source
• Motor drives press flywheel, which
generates energy that’s applied by way of the crankshaft and ram to the lower
dies.

Full revolution
clutch• Uses keys, pins, or jaws to
engage crankshaft to flywheel
• Once engaged, clutch drags
crankshaft through one complete
revolution before it can be
disengaged
• Uses friction brake that is always
applied to hold slide stationery
when clutch is not engaged
• Will not stop until it has
completed one full stroke

Methods of initiating press
cycle
• Foot pedals - treadle
– Protected to prevent unintended
operation from falling or moving
objects.
– Pad with nonslip contact area firmly
attached to pedal
– Pedal return springs will be
compression type
– If counterweights are provided, path of
travel of weight will be enclosed
• Enclose the weight’s path of travel to
prevent interference with its movement

• Failure will be detectable by a simple
test, or indicated by the control
system

Application of press
brakes
• Press brakes are used to perform a
variety of operations on sheet, plate,
and other metals
– The primary application of a press brake
is to bend sheet metal at an angle to
form flanges, boxes, channels, etc.
