Mar 16, 2017  Hey guys, so for quite some time I've been wanting to build a hydraulic forging press but have been especially stuck on one factor: size. May 06, 2016  How I built my cheap hydraulic log splitter (Under $200) - Homemade log splitter - Duration: 7:35. The Ammo Channel 622,473 views.

An industrial sized hydraulic press is extremely heavy and expensive, but a smaller version can be made using a standard —the same type used to change a car tire.Two heavy duty metal braces, threaded rod, and a few nuts are all it takes to assemble your own hydraulic press. A blast shield and safety glasses should always be used when crushing anything, especially if it's hard. You can modify this press and set it inside a larger frame behind a blast shield, and use an extension on the jack to raise it from in front of the shield.

This relatively small machine, which is often hand made, allows smiths to do many of the same operations as a power hammer while adding more control and expanding what one can do with hot metal. Over forty years ago a spark ignited Randy McDaniel's passion for forging hot metal.

This has been a passion that continually grows. Seven years ago his exploration of hot metal evolved and he began specializing in work done with the hydraulic forging press. Randy now creates all of his own tooling and dies which he uses to produce a line of unique items. He loves how the power of his sixty ton press pushes hot metal as if it were clay in his hands. This book covers the history, the how to, and especially the versatility of the hydraulic forging press for the blacksmith and the knife maker. It provides a comparison between the press and other machinery, the different types of presses, which type of press is right for your application, should you build one or buy one, focuses on tooling that you can make to get the most out of your press and much, much more' -- back cover.

Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 45 Total Download: 325 File Size: 43,9 Mb Description: As the only comprehensive text focusing on metal shaping processes, which are still the most widely used processes in the manufacture of products and structures, Metal Shaping Processes carefully presents the fundamentals of metal shaping processes with their relevant applications. The treatment of the subject matter is adequately descriptive for those unfamiliar with the various processes and yet is sufficiently analytical for an introductory academic course in manufacturing. The text, as well as the numerous formulas and illustrations in each chapter, clearly show that shaping processes, as a part of manufacturing engineering, are a complex and interdisciplinary subject. The topics are organized and presented in such a manner that they motivate and challenge students to present technically and economically viable solutions to a wide variety of questions and problems, including product design.

It is the perfect textbook for students in mechanical, industrial, and manufacturing engineering programs at both the Associate Degree and Bachelor Degree programs, as well a valuable reference for manufacturing engineers (those who design, execute and maintain the equipment and tools); process engineers (those who plan and engineer the manufacturing steps, equipment, and tooling needed in production); manufacturing managers and supervisors; product design engineers; and maintenance and reliability managers and technicians. Free illustrator hair brushes. Each chapter begins with a brief highlighted outline of the topics to be described.

Carefully presents the fundamentals of the particular metal-shaping process with its relevant applications within each chapter, so that the student and teacher can clearly assess the capabilities, limitation, and potentials of the process and its competitive aspects. Features sections on product design considerations, which present guidelines on design for manufacturing in many of the chapters.
