PREFACE
Industrial training is a part and parcel of every technical course and gives
a face or form to all the theoretical knowledge we gain in our classroom.
We get to have a virtual experience of the processes, methods, objects and
phenomenon which used to be just an imaginary picture in our minds. We
have the theoretical as well as virtual knowledge of many different types
of processes, methods and other machines and certain phenomenon. It is
equally important that we may also have exposure of the things that
happens in the industry. It also gives an exposure to the environment of
the industries and workshops which are virtual components of our
professional life. We too were provided with the opportunity to gain some
knowledge about the technical environment of the industry. We too were
also provided with the opportunity to do the internship training in the
final year that is final semester of the technical course.

PRESS SHOP
A forming press, commonly shortened to press, is a machine tool that changes the
shape of a work piece by the application of pressure. The operator of a forming press is
known as a press-tool setter, often shortened to tool setter.
Machine presses can be hazardous, so safety measures must always be taken. Bi-
manual controls (controls the use of which requires both hands to be on the buttons to
operate) are a very good way to prevent accidents, as are light sensors that keep the
machine from working if the operator is in range of the die.
Presses can be classified according to
their mechanism: hydraulic, mechanical, pneumatic;
their controllability: conventional vs. servo-presses
There are 30 mechanical presses, 28 pneumatic presses and a hydraulic press.
There is a facility of spot welding.
There are 6 spot welding machines.
In the press shop more than 100 people work that includes operators, helpers,
supervisors, engineers.

PNEUMATIC PRESS MACHINE
A pneumatic press derives its primary mechanical action (such as shearing, punching,
bending, forming, drawing, extruding, assembly, or other action) from a pressure source by
means of compressed air.
Such presses are used in mechanized binderies for a variety of purposes, and, although they
cannot supply the extreme pressures available with the hydraulic press, they do offer the
advantages of speed of operation and cleanliness.
A fully pneumatic power press differs from a mechanical or hydraulic press, which may
use pneumatic systems to only activate a brake/clutch, slide counterbalance or other
systems but that uses mechanical means or hydraulic fluid to power the ram.
3
Operator Involvement
The operator is responsible for feeding or placing the stock on the bottom die, seeing that it
is properly positioned, activating the press cycle with a pressure control switch, and
removing the completed part.
4
MECHANICAL PRESS MACHINE
A mechanical power press is a machine used to supply force to a die that is used to
blank, form, or shape metal or non-metallic material.
Thus, a press is a component of a manufacturing system that combines the press, a
die, material and feeding method to produce a part.
The designer of the manufacturing system must also provide proper point of
operation guards to safeguard pressroom personnel.
Each of the components of this manufacturing system is important and will be
discussed in turn later in this work.
A foundation for understanding the system is acquiring a working knowledge of
the press.
5
Punch press, machine that changes the size or shape of a piece of material, usually
sheet metal, by applying pressure to a die in which the workpiece is held. The form
and construction of the die determine the shape produced on the workpiece.
A punch press has two co-acting components: the punch, which is attached to
the reciprocating ram of the machine, and the die, which is clamped onto a bed or
anvil whose flat surface is perpendicular to the path of the ram. In operation, the
punch pushes against the workpiece, which is held in the die. A blanking die shears
out a slug of sheet metal to make it into a blank that will fit dies for subsequent
punch-press operations. These include forming or bending and drawing, in which
cup-shaped articles are produced by a process that entails some plastic flow of the
metal.
Punch presses are usually driven by electric motors, and conversion from the rotary
motion of the drive shaft to reciprocation of the ram is effected by a crank, a toggle,
or a cam mechanism. Because the power demands are intermittent, a flywheel is
attached to the drive shaft to store energy during the idling period between strokes
of the ram and to deliver energy to the shaft during a punching operation, thus
reducing the required capacity of the driving motor.
6
HYDRAULIC POWER PRESS
Principle of Operation
The hydraulic press depends on Pascal's principle-the pressure throughout a closed system is
constant. One part of the system is a piston acting as a
pump, with modest mechanical force acting on a small
cross-sectional area; the other part is a piston with a
larger area which generates a correspondingly large
Main principle mechanical force. Only small-diameter
tubing (which more easily resists pressure) is needed if
the pump is separated from the press cylinder. Pascal's
law: Pressure on a confined fluid is transmitted
undiminished and acts with equal force on equal areas
Figure 12 PASCAL'S LAW
and at 90 degrees to the container wall. A small effort
force acts on a small piston. This creates a pressure which is transferred through the hydraulic fluid
to a large piston.
7
Application
Hydraulic presses are commonly used for forging, clinching, moulding, blanking, punching, deep
drawing, and metal forming operations. With the on-going surge towards lightweight parts for
aerospace, automotive appliances and many other industries, Servo Hydraulic and Hydraulic
presses have become a key tool for the Thermoplastic Industries. Otherwise known as compression
moulding presses, control of speed, pressures, position, heating and cooling mould temperatures
can be managed with the I-PRESS HYDRO controller for press and automation functions.

MAIN PARTS OF A DIE
10
While the main function of a stripper is to remove scrap, very frequently it is made to
have important secondary functions of pressing the material or guiding the tip of the
punch. When removing scrap in small volume production is important, materials such
as S50C hardened steel are used which do not require heat treatment.
6. Nested plates
The descriptions given above assume single type plates. In dies, nested type (insert
type) plates are used very often. Such plates are used for stripper plates or die plates. In
the case of small volume production, materials such as S50C without heat treatment
are sometimes used for the main plate. For medium or higher volume production,
materials such as SKS3 or SKD11 are used after heat treatment. The materials SKD11,
SKH51, pre-hardened steel, and cemented carbide, etc. are used as the materials for
nested plates. The selection of the material is based on ease of maintenance, accuracy,
and operating life.
7. Punch
The materials used for punches are SKS3, SKD11, SKH51, powdered high speed tool
steel, cemented carbide, etc. The standard material used is SKD11. SKS3 is sometimes
used in the case of small volume production. SKH51 is used when the size is small, or
when toughness is required. Powdered high speed tool steel or cemented carbide are
used when wear resistance is required or for large volume production.
11
Operations Performed On a Press
Table 1 OPERATIONS
12
Types of press operations are as follows:
usually performed in a closed die in which the metal is forced to flow and fill the shape and
profile of the die. There is a definite change in metal thickness.
3. Crimping – An operation in which the open end of a can or shell is forced tight over or
around a mating part. This type of work is limited largely to assembly operations.
4. Curling – The forming of an edge having a circular cross section along a sheet or around
the end of a shell or tube. This operation is sometimes called false wiring.
7. Extrusion – A process in which pressure is applied to a slug of metal causing the metal
to flow either up around the punch (toothpaste tubes) or down in the direction of pressure .
8. Ironing – A process in which the wall thickness of the shell is reduced without changing
the O.D. of the shell.
13
9. Lancing – Slitting and forming a pocket shaped opening in sheet metal, without
removing metal.
10. Necking – Reducing the diameter of a portion of the length of a cylindrical shell or tube.
Figure 18 PIERCING
12. Redrawing – The second operation following deep-drawing operations, in which cups
are deepened and reduced in cross section.
13. Staking – An operation in which two or more parts are assembled permanently by
upsetting a small portion of metal over the mating part, causing the compression on the
assembled parts.
14. Swaging – Forming a metal by the rapid striking of a large number of successive blows.
In the case of aircraft cable fittings, the fitting is rotated while the press blows are being
struck.
14
TYPES OF TOOLS
1. Simple Tool
The tool which is manufactured to perform only one operation at a particular workstation
from all the operations which are to be done on a particular component.
2. Compound Tool
The compound tool differs from progressive and stage tools by the arrangement of the
punch and die.
It is an inverted tool where blanking and piercing takes place in a single stage. Compound
dies perform multiple operations on the part. The compound operation is the act of
implementing more than one operation during the press cycle.
A compound die differs from a progressive die in that it performs two or more cutting
operations during one stroke of the press at one station only.
Compound dies are slower in operation than progressive dies.
A compound die allows the cutting of internal and external part features on a single press
stroke.
3. Progressive Die
A series of two or more dies arranged in line for performing two or more operations on
apart - one operation (single or compound) performed in each die, at each station.
Work in the form of a strip is usually fed to progressive dies automatically by a roll feed. In
a progressive tool the final component is obtained by progressing the sheet metal or strip in
more than one stage. At each stage the tool will progressively shape the component
towards its final shape, with the final stage normally being cutting-off.
The sheet metal is fed through as a coil strip, and a different operation (such as punching,
blanking and notching) is performed at the same station of the machine with each stroke of
a series of punches.
The dies which performed two or more operations at different stages every time the ram
descends are known as Progressive die.
The principle advantage of Progressive die is in the number of operations that can be
achieved with one handling of the stock strip. The main disadvantage is that work pieces
may become “dished” as they pushed through the die as they generally have very little
support.

Defects in Sheet Metal Components during Different Operations
There are certain type of defects that generally occur while manufacturing a particular
component by the means of forming I.e., Sheet metal operations and some of them are as
shown in the table below:
Table 2 DEFECTS
As it is clear from the above table that there are 2 kinds of processes
One is cutting process and
other is non-cutting processes
It is also clear that in the cutting processes the defect that occurs is mainly BURR which
can be reworked.
While in the non-cutting processes the defects that occur are wrinkles, thinning, and crack
and we also know that these defects cannot be reworked and only get included in rejection
and finally in production loss.
We all know that the defects help in decreasing the quality standard of the respective
company.
17
Following data was observed in a sheet metal industry with the help of Pareto Diagram
which shows how important is to control the burr, a defect, which has a major contribution
to increase the defect graph of any organization.
From the above Pareto diagram it is clear that the main defect that comes while
manufacturing any component is burr.
BURR is a thin edge or ridge.
When we are able to get the problem then we have to find the causes to this effect
by the means of CAUSE AND EFFECT DIAGRAM (Fishbone diagram).

There are several reasons responsible for burr formation during machining phase. Broadly
they can be classified into two groups.

b) Press Tool: Clearance between die & punch
The cutting of sheet metal in press work is a shearing process. The punch is of the
same as of the die opening except that it is smaller on each side by an amount
known as clearance. As the punch touches the material and travels downwards, it
pushes the material into the die opening; the material is subjected to both tensile
and compressive stresses.

SPOT WELDING
Spot welding is one of the oldest welding processes.
Resistance spot welding (RSW) is a process in which contacting metal surface points are
joined by the heat obtained from resistance to electric current.
Work-pieces are held together under pressure exerted by electrodes.
Typically the sheets are in the 0.5 to 3 mm
thickness range.
The process a spot welding robot uses two
shaped copper alloy electrodes to concentrate
welding current into a small "spot" and to
simultaneously clamp the sheets together.
Forcing a large current through the spot will
melt the metal and form the weld. The
attractive feature of spot welding is that a lot
of energy can be delivered to the spot in a
very short time that permits the welding to
occur without excessive heating of the
remainder of the sheet.
Thicker stock is more difficult to spot weld
because the heat flows into the surrounding
metal more easily. Figure 32 SPOT WELDING
The amount of heat delivered to the spot is determined by the resistance between the
electrodes and the magnitude and duration of the current.
The amount of energy is chosen to match the sheet's material properties, its thickness, and
type of electrodes.
Applying too little energy will not melt the metal or will make a poor weld. Applying too
much energy will melt too much metal, eject molten material, and make a hole rather than
a weld. Another feature of spot welding is that the energy delivered to the spot can be
controlled to produce reliable welds.
It is used in a wide range of industries but notably for the assembly of sheet steel vehicle
bodies. This is a type of resistance welding where the spot welds are made at regular
intervals on overlapping sheets of metal.
Spot-weld diameters range from 3 mm to 12.5 mm.
24
APPLICATIONS OF SPOT WELDING
Spot welding is typically used when welding particular types of sheet metal, welded wire
mesh or wire mesh.
Spot welding can be easily identified on many sheet metal goods, such as metal buckets.
The most common application of spot welding is in the automobile manufacturing industry,
where it is used almost universally to weld the sheet metal to form a car.
Spot welders can also be completely automated, and many of the industrial robots found on
assembly lines are spot welders.
Spot welding is also used in the orthodontist's clinic.
Steel has a higher electrical resistivity and lower thermal conductivity than the copper
electrodes, making welding relatively easy. Low carbon steel is most suitable for spot
welding. Higher carbon content or alloys steel tend to form hard welds that are brittle and
could crack.
Aluminium has an electrical resistivity and
thermal conductivity that is closer to that of
copper. However, aluminium's melting point is
much lower than that of copper, making welding
possible.
Higher levels of current must be used for welding
aluminium because of its low resistivity.
Galvanized steel requires a different welding
approach than uncoated steel. Zinc coating must
first be melted off before the steel is joined.
Figure 33SPOT WELDING TIPS
Zinc has a low melting point, so a pulse of current
before welding will accomplish this. During the
weld, the zinc can combine with the steel and
lower its resistivity. Therefore, higher levels of
current are required to weld galvanized steel.
25
PROCESSING AND EQUIPMENT
MIG WELDING
26
Metal inert gas (MIG) welding or metal active gas (MAG) welding is a welding process in
which an electric arc forms between a consumable MIG wire electrode and the workpieces
metal(s), which heats the workpiece metal(s), causing them to melt and join.
Along with the wire electrode, a shielding gas feeds through the welding gun, which
shields the process from contaminants in the air.
Figure 36 MIG WELDING
The process can be semi-automatic or automatic. A constant voltage, direct current power
source is most commonly used with GMAW, but constant current systems, as well as
alternating current, can be used.
There are four primary methods of metal transfer in GMAW, called globular, short-
circuiting, spray, and pulsed-spray,
Figure 37 MIG WELDING
each of which has distinct
properties and corresponding advantages and limitations.
27
TIG WELDING
A constant-current welding
power supply produces
electrical energy, which is
conducted across the arc
through a column of highly
ionized gas and metal
vapours known as plasma.
GTAW is most commonly
used to weld thin sections
of stainless steel and
Figure 39TIG WELDING
nonferrous metals such as
aluminium, magnesium, and copper alloys.
The process grants the operator greater control over the weld than competing processes
such as shielded metal arc welding and gas metal arc welding, allowing for stronger, higher
quality welds.
However, GTAW is comparatively more complex and difficult to master, and furthermore,
it is significantly slower than most other welding techniques.

ROBOTIC WELDING
Robot welding
is the use of
mechanized
programmable
tools (robots),
which
completely
automate a
welding process
by both
performing the
weld and
handling the part.
Figure 40 ROBOTIC WELDING
Processes such as gas metal arc welding, while often automated, are not necessarily
equivalent to robot welding, since a human operator sometimes prepares the materials to be
welded. Robot welding is commonly used for resistance spot welding and arc welding in
high production applications,
such as the automotive industry.

CNC BENDING MACHINE
The basic machine consists of a CNC operated side stop, a work bench, and software for
programming and operating.
Its modular construction offers an affordable entry into the bending technology, because
after an initial investment the machine can be customized and extended later without any
conversion.
30
GRINDING MACHINE
Surface grinding is used to produce a smooth
finish on flat surfaces.
CYLINDRICAL GRNDER
31
The cylindrical grinder is a type of grinding machine used to shape the outside of an
object.
The cylindrical grinder can work on a variety of shapes; however the object must have
a central axis of rotation.
32
DRILL MACHINE
A drill is a tool primarily used for making round holes or driving fasteners.
It is fitted with a bit, either a drill or driver, depending on application, secured by a chuck.
Some powered drills also include a hammer function.
Drills vary widely in speed, power, and size.
They are characteristically corded electrically driven devices, with hand operated types
COORDINATE MEASURING
Figure 48 DRILL MACHINE
MACHINE
33
A coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is a device that measures the geometry of
physical objects by sensing discrete points on the surface of the object with a probe.
The typical 3D "bridge" CMM allows probe movement along three axes, X, Y and Z,
which are orthogonal to each other in a
three-dimensional Cartesian
coordinate system.
34
In such applications, point clouds are generated which are analysed via regression
algorithms for the construction of features.
These points are collected by using a probe that is positioned manually by an operator or
automatically via Direct Computer Control (DCC). DCC CMMs can be programmed to
repeatedly measure identical parts.
Thus an automated CMM is a specialized form of industrial robot.
1. VERNIER CALIPER
It is a measuring device that consists of a main scale with a fixed jaw and sliding jaw with
an attached vernier scale.
35
The principle of Vernier Calliper is the difference
between two scales.
Through Vernier we can measure internal dimensions,
outside dimensions and depth.
Least Count=1-Divison on vernier scale/Division on
main scale
Least count=1-49/50=1÷50=0.02mm
2. HEIGHT GAUGE
A height gauge is a measuring device used for determining the height of objects, and for
marking of items to be worked on.
These measuring tools are used in metalworking or metrology to either set or measure
vertical distances; the pointer is sharpened to allow it to
act as a scriber and assist in marking out work pieces.
Height gauges may also be used to measure the height of
an object by using the underside of the scriber as the
datum.
3. MICROMETER
Another useful device for magnifying small measurements
is the micrometer. Figure 53 HEIGHT GAUGE
The principle of micrometer is nut and bolt.
These instruments are often made in various ranges like 0-
25mm, 25-50mm, 50-75mm to reduce wear and maintain
accuracy of the thread.
Pitch ÷ number of circular division Figure 54 INSIDE MICROMETER
Least Count=0.5÷50=0.01mm
36
For measuring dimensions of outside
and inside of the component different
Figure 55
types of micrometer are used
MICROMETER
4. RADIUS GAUGE
A radius gauge, also known as a fillet
gauge, is a tool used to measure the
radius of an object.
A good set of gauges will offer both
convex and concave sections, and allow for
their application in awkward locations.
Every leaf has a different radius.
The material of the leaves is stainless steel.
It is of two types: 1. Internal 2. External. It is used to check the radius of inner and outer
surfaces.
5.
SURFACE
PLATE
It is a
solid
flat
plate
used as
the main
horizontal reference plane for precision inspection, marking out and tooling setup.

6. DIAL GAUGE
A gauge consisting of a circular
graduated dial and a pointer actuated
by a member that contact with the part
being calibrated.
A dial bore gauge is a convenient term
for the measuring or transfer tool that
is used in the process of accurately
measuring holes.
Least Count=1÷100=0.01mm
7. V BLOCK
V-Blocks are precision metalworking jigs typically used to hold round metal rods or pipes
for performing drilling or milling operations.
38
Figure 59 V-BLOCK
They consist of a rectangular steel or cast iron block with a 90-degree channel rotated 45-
degrees from the sides, forming a V-shaped channel in the top.
A small groove is cut in the bottom of the "V".
They often come with screw clamps to hold the work. There are also versions with internal
8. BEVEL PROTECTOR
A bevel protractor is a graduated circular protractor with one pivoted arm; used for
measuring or marking off angles.
Sometimes Vernier scales are attached to give more precise readings. It has wide
application in architectural and mechanical drawing,
Although its use is decreasing with the availability of modern drawing software or CAD.
9. SINE BAR

Many different types of metal can be made into sheet metal, including aluminium, brass,
copper, steel, titanium, tin and stainless steel.
11. FEELER
GAUGE
41
A feeler gauge is a tool used to measure gap widths.
Feeler gauges are mostly used in engineering to measure the clearance between two parts.
They consist of a number of small lengths of steel of different thicknesses with
measurements marked on each piece.
They are flexible enough that, even if they are all on the
same hinge, several can be stacked together to gauge
intermediate values.
It is common to have two sets for imperial units (typically
measured in thousandths of an inch) and metric (typically Figure 65 FEELER GAUGE
measured in hundredths of a millimetre) measurements.
A bore gauge is a collective term for the tools that are unique to the process of accurately
measuring holes.
The dial bore gauge must be set to the nominal value of the bore, and it will measure the
variation and direction of the bore from nominal.
There are multiple ways to set this gauges to the nominal value. The most common method
is using an outside micrometer that is set
to the nominal value.
The interchangeable ends come in varying lengths to accommodate a range of bore sizes.

RESULTS
Successful Development of
The Part: In the final we get
the result of the successful
development of the part. The
part can be developed
43
according to its profile which is provided by the company to the engineers. According to its
structure a die can be used for the manufacturing of the part. For the manufacturing of the
different parts different dies can be used which are according to the shape of the part. The die is
loaded on the M.B. and M.B. can be placed inside the press as the lower unit and an upper
portion of the die can be attached to the upper M.B. with the help of studs. When the die is
loaded then the complete automatic process of the press starts and the pressure starts creating in
the cylinders which are attached at the top portion of the press. When the pressure completes
then the upper die completes its stroke and the single- single operations can be completed on
different presses. The presses used for these different operations are of different pressures the
press used for the drawing operation is of 800 Tones and the presses used for the remaining
operations are of 400 Tones that means the upper die strikes on the lower one with that pressure.
The damps produced in the press by this strike are absorbed by the damping unit which is under
the cushion bed. The M.B. is placed on the cushion bed and the damps can be absorbed by the
damping unit. After the every operation complete the part sends to the welding shop where the
nut and bolts are attached to the part according to the constructional detail of the part with the
help of the spot welding and at last the part is checked by the quality checkers and ready for
delivery. So this is the successful development of the part.
Get The Chance To Gain The Knowledge: After watching the complete phenomenon of
manufacturing of part we are able to getting the knowledge about the different press operation
such as drawing, trimming, restriking and punching. The different part of the die works in a
different manner and these are automatically done so after watching these operations we are able
to get the knowledge of different press operations. After the different press phenomenon the
different welding operations are performed on it. The welding operation is used is the Spot
Welding operation in which spot welding can be done in two different ways:
These are the two welding operation which are used for spot welding so we get the knowledge
about the spot welding techniques and machines which are used for spot welding. By watching
this complete we are able to get the knowledge of different processes that can be used in the
44
factory for manufacturing of different parts. So after getting the complete training we get the
knowledge of different processes.
DISCUSSION
1) Wrinkle
2) Overlapping
3) Crack
4) Burr
5) Dent
6) Deformation
These are the main problems that are faced during the manufacturing process of part. These
defects can be discussed during training.
1) Lubrication problem
2) Pressure problem
These are the problems that are faced during the working condition of the press. So these defects
can be discussed or solved out during training.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion we are discussed to solve the problem produced during the working condition of
press and manufacturing of the parts. To solve the defects produced on the surface of the sheet
during different press operations different processes can be used if the damage is small and it can
45
easily be repaired then it can be machined and repaired it but if the defect is not be able to
correct then the sheet can be thrown into scrap. If the problems are small and it can easily be
repaired then different operations such as hammering and machining can be used. After applying
these processes the defects can be removed from the surface of the sheet because without
removing these defects it can’t be possible to use these parts. A defective piece can’t be used in
the manufacturing of the final component so it is necessary to remove these defects. In conclusion
we discussed the process used for removal of the defects.
There are certain defects produced during the working of press. The different defects produced
during the press operation are lubrication problem, less pressure produced in the cylinders. It is
necessary to solve these problems because without solving these problems the press can’t work
automatically. If any operation of the press stops working then press stops working so it is
necessary to solve these problems. Sometimes the pump of lubrication stop working and the press
stops working. So this effect can be checked out and clear it so that the press should work
properly. Sometimes the cylinder cannot produce proper pressure for the stroke of the die so it is
necessary to solve this problem that the press should stroke properly. The pump stops working
and the pressure stops producing in the cylinders and due to this the press stops working so we
find out the problem and solve this so that press should work properly.
So these are the basic conclusions that are made to solve the problems produced during the
different operations.
