I. INTRODUCTION

Press work is a method of large scale manufacturing including the virus working of metals, generally as slender sheet or strip. Press working is one of the widely utilized methods of manufacturing portions of complicated shapes with meager dividers. Press working procedures utilize huge powers by press instruments for a brief span interim which brings about cutting or melding the sheet metal. Since, press working doesn't include warming of the parts, close resilience‘s and high surface completion can be acquired on the part. Since presses can deliver segments at genuinely quick rates, the unit cost of work for working the press is genuinely low. A water driven press creates a lot of power from the use of a limited quantity of power to the little cylinder. A water driven press is a press that utilizations fluid pressure to make a little power applied to a little cylinder produce an enormous power on a bigger cylinder.

Figure 1 hydraulic press 1.1 Working principle

The working drive of press has developed from Mechanical to Hydraulic and even Pneumatic. With

Pneumatic presses have better limit and are unmistakably progressively dependable and simple to keep up [1]. Basically because of high working limit of these presses, they are universal and favored over mechanical presses. Additionally viability is one of the key factors behind the best possible usefulness of these presses. Hydraulic press deals with Pascal's law as per this law "In a liquid very still in a shut holder, a pressure change in one section is transmitted without misfortune to each part of the liquid and to the dividers of the compartment‖.

Figure 2 Pascal’s law

Hydraulics utilizes incompressible fluids so the applied pressure from one end (little bolt) is equivalent to the ideal pressure on the opposite end (enormous bolt). The enormous bolt is highlighting a cylinder that is allowed to move, and is now and again associated with a pole. At the point when the power is applied, the cylinder goes up or down. The equations are: Pressure 1 = pressure 2 Pressure is equivalent to the power isolated by the zone on which it acts. As indicated by Pascal's rule, in a hydraulic framework a pressure applied on a cylinder creates an equivalent press another cylinder in the framework. In the event that the subsequent cylinder has a region multiple times that of the primary, the power on the subsequent cylinder is multiple times more prominent, however the pressure is equivalent to Where, F -is the force applied P -is the pressure transmitted A -is the cross sectional area
