Design and Fabrication of Drawing Die for Fly Press

Abstract

Press working is defined as a non -chip removal manufacturing process by which various components are made from sheet metal. There are various types of components are produced from sheet metal operation. The main aim of this project is to "Design and fabrication of drawing die used in the fly press”. The design aspects of drawing die is accomplished in CATIA v5 and ansys 15.0 software. As coming to the manufacturing of drawing die, drawing die are manufactured in hot-chamber process which has the capacity to cast high melting point materials. The press tool leads to different operations namely blanking, drawing, trimming, bending, lancing, perforating, curling and shaving operations. Generally, drawing operation is the process of producing cylindrical objects. There is a vast use of press tools in industries like defense, textile, automobile, aircraft and food processing. The press machine is of the hand-operated fly press.
