Design and Analysis of Press Tool to Produce Radiator Stay Bracket

Abstract

Progressive press tool is a die in which two or more operations are performed on each stroke of the press. The following study mostly focuses on the designing of progressive press tool and bending press tool to be used in the production of the stay bracket, also modeling of all the components, and analyzing the stress and deflection on the components. The modeling of the components was carried out on AUTODESK INVENTOR PROFESSIONAL 2016, and the structural analysis of the components was carried out on ANSYS WORKBENCH (ver. 17.0). The design and analysis of components was done by following the standard die design and analysis methods. The selection of materials for various components was also made by following standard die design procedure. The manufacturing of all the above components was done by following the standard manufacturing principles on Lathe, Vertical milling, and Drilling machines according to the requirement.
