INTRODUCTION OF HYDRAULIC
PRESS
Hydraulics is a topic in applied science and engineering dealing with the mechanical
properties of liquids or fluids. At a very basic level, hydraulics is the liquid version
of pneumatics. Fluid mechanics provides the theoretical foundation for hydraulics,
which focuses on the engineering uses of fluid properties. In fluid power, hydraulics are
used for the generation, control, and transmission of power by the use
ofpressurized liquids. Hydraulic topics range through some part of science and most of
engineering modules, and cover concepts such as pipe flow, dam design, fluidics and
fluid control circuitry, pumps,turbines, hydropower, computational fluid dynamics, flow
measurement,river channel behavior and erosion.
Free surface hydraulics is the branch of hydraulics dealing with free surface flow, such
as occurring in rivers, canals, lakes, estuaries andseas. Its sub-field open channel
flow studies the flow in open channels.
The word "hydraulics" originates from the Greek word (hydraulikos) which
in turn originates from (hydor, Greek forwater) and (aulos, meaning pipe).

problems dealing with the collection, storage, control, transport,
regulation, measurement, and use of water.[1] Before beginning a
hydraulic engineering project, one must figure out how much water is
involved. The hydraulic engineeris concerned with the transport of
sediment by the river, the interaction of the water with its alluvial
boundary, and the occurrence of scour and deposition.[1]"The
hydraulic engineer actually develops conceptual designs for the
various features which interact with water such as spillways and
outlet works for dams, culverts for highways, canals and related
structures for irrigation projects, and cooling-water facilities for
thermal power plants."
OIL TANK
A tank is a large type of armoured fighting vehicle with tracks, designed for frontline combat. Modern tanks are strong mobile land weapons platforms, mounting a largecalibre cannon in a rotating gun turret. They combine this with heavy vehicle
armour providing protection for the crew of the weapon and operational mobility, which
allows them to position on the battlefield in advantageous locations. These features enable
the tank to have enormous capability to perform well in a tacticalsituation: the combination of
strong weapons fire from their tank gunand their ability to resist enemy fire means the tank
can take hold of and control an area of the battle and prevent other enemy vehicles from
advancing, for example. In both offensive and defensive roles, they are powerful units able
to perform all primary tasks[which?] required of armoured troops on the battlefield.[1] The modern
tank was the result of a century of development from primitive armoured vehicles, due to
improvements in technology such as the internal combustion engine, which allowed the
rapid movement of heavy equipment required to construct armoured vehicles. As a result of
these advances, tanks underwent tremendous shifts in capability during the World Wars of
the 20th century.
HOSE PIPES
A hose is a flexible hollow tube designed to carry fluids from one location
to another. Hoses are also sometimes called pipes (the word pipe usually
refers to a rigid tube, whereas a hose is usually a flexible one), or more
generallytubing. The shape of a hose is usually cylindrical (having
a circular cross section).
Hose design is based on a combination of application and performance.
Common factors are Size, Pressure Rating, Weight, Length, Straight hose
or Coilhose and Chemical Compatibility.
Hoses are made from one or a combination of many different materials.
Applications mostly use nylon, polyurethane, polyethylene, PVC, or
synthetic or natural rubbers, based on the environment and pressure rating
needed. In recent years, hoses can also be manufactured from special
grades of polyethylene (LDPEand especially LLDPE). Other hose materials
include PTFE (Teflon), stainless steeland other metals.
NOZZLE
A propelling nozzle converts a gas turbine or gas generator into a jet engine. Energy
available in the gas turbine exhaust is converted into a high speed propelling jet by the
nozzle. Turbofan engines may have an additional and separate propelling nozzle which
produces a high speed propelling jet from the energy in the air that has passed through
the fan. In addition, the nozzle helps to determine how the gas generator and fan
operate as it acts as a downstream restrictor.[1]
Propelling nozzles accelerate the available gas to subsonic, transonic, or supersonic
velocities depending on the power setting of the engine, their internal shape and the
pressures at entry to, and exit from, the nozzle. The internal shape may be convergent
or convergent-divergent (C-D). C-D nozzles can accelerate the jet to supersonic
velocities within the divergent section, whereas a convergent nozzle cannot accelerate
the jet beyond sonic speed.[2]

A press brake, also known as a brake press, is a machine tool for bending sheet and plate
material, most commonly sheet metal.[1] It forms predetermined bends by clamping the
workpiece between a matching punch and die.[2]
Bending process
Typically, two C-frames form the sides of the press brake, connected to a table at the
bottom and on a moveable beam at the top. The bottom tool is mounted on the table with
the top tool mounted on the upper beam
V-diesthe most common type of die. The bottom dies can be made with
different-sized die openings to handle a variety of materials and bend angles.
Rotary bending diesa cylindrical shape with an 88-degree V-notch cut along its
axis is seated in the "saddle" of the punch. The die is an anvil over which the rocker
bends the sheet.
Acute angle (air-bending) diesused in air bending, these can actually be used
to produce acute, 90 degree, and obtuse angles by varying how deeply the punch
enters the die by adjusting the ram.
Offset diesa combination punch and die set that bends two angles in one
stroke to produce a Z shape.
Radius diesA radiused bend can be produced by a rounded punch. The bottom
die may be a V-die or may include a spring pad or rubber pad to form the bottom of
the die.
Beading diesA bead or a "stopped rib" may be a feature that stiffens the
resulting part. The punch has a rounded head with flat shoulders on each side of the
bead. The bottom die is the inverse of the punch.
Application
In popular culture
A hydraulic press is the cause of death for the Terminator in the film of
the same name, as well as Andre Delambre in The Fly. The room featured
in Fermat's Roomhas a design similar to that of a hydraulic press. Boris
Artzybasheff also created a drawing of a hydraulic press, in which the press
was created out of the shape of arobot.
