Abstracts: The hydraulic press is one of the oldest of the basic machine tools. In its modern form, is well adapted to presswork ranging from coining jewellery to forging aircraft parts. Modern hydraulic presses are, in some cases, better suited to applications where the mechanical press has been traditionally more popular. Modern hydraulic presses offer good performance and reliability. We will learn the working of the Hydraulic press, in detail. It begins with research into hydraulic operations, a brief study of fluid power & incompressible fluids and a look into existing products. A basic structure is developed using strength of materials, beam bending theory, applied/allowable stress analysis and material deflection. It does not only cover the press design, but also documents its construction and testing of structure. It includes a complete set of engineering drawings to manufacture the hydraulic press. While manufacturing, we will be able to go through all the processes that are involved in fabricating such a machine from manufacturing of the Press Body to the Hydraulic Power Pack, which will provide us with a deep insight into the subject and enable us to broaden our acumen towards the production side of engineering.
