3. WHAT IS HYDRAULIC PRESS ?
A hydraulic press is a machine for applying a large lifting or compressive force. Joseph Bramah, of England invented and was issued a patent for his press in 1795.
Hydraulic equipments are work on the Pascal law of pressure.

4. Pascal law The pressure throughout a closed system is constant.

5. WORKING OF HYDRAULIC PRESS
Since the hydraulic press works on the basis of Pascal's Law, its working is similar to the one of the hydraulic system. A hydraulic press consists of basic components used in a hydraulic system that includes the cylinder, pistons, the hydraulic pipes, etc.The working of this press is very simple. The system comprises of two cylinders, the fluid (usually oil) is poured in the cylinder having a small diameter. This cylinder is known as the slave cylinder.

6. The piston in this cylinder is pushed so that it compresses the fluid in it that flows through a pipe into the larger cylinder. The larger cylinder is known as the master cylinder. The pressure is exerted on the larger cylinder and the piston in the master cylinder pushes the fluid back to the original cylinder.
by Anil Gajjar

7. The force applied on the fluids by the smaller cylinder results in a larger force when pushed in the master cylinder. The hydraulic press is mostly used for industrial purposes where a large pressure is required for compressing metals into thin sheets. An industrial hydraulic press uses the material to be worked upon along with the help of the press plates to crush or punch the material into a thin sheet.

10. 1. Cylinder - Cylinder assembly consists of a cylinder, piston, ram, packing, and seals. Piston diameter and oil pressure determine the force (tonnage) that a given press can deliver.
2. Frame - The main structure of the press containing the cylinder(s) and the working surfaces.
3. Stroke Control - Stroke length can be set for any distance within the stroke limits of the cylinder. Adjustments include: top of stroke, pre-slowdown point, and bottom of stroke.
by Anil Gajjar

11. 4. Throat Clearance - The distance from the vertical centerline of the ram to the frame member behind the bed. This distance determines the largest diameter piece that can be positioned with the part centerline under the center of the ram.
5. Daylight - The vertical clearance from the top of the bolster to the underside of the ram in its maximum up position. This term sometimes is confused with the mechanical press term "shut height". Shut height is the clearance over the bed with the ram full down. "Daylight" describes the maximum vertical capacity of the press.

12. 6. Bolster - A plate or structure mounted on the bed
6. Bolster - A plate or structure mounted on the bed. Hydraulic press manufacturers provide a removable bolster on most models.
7. Bed - Flat, stationary machined surface that supports the bolster or dies.
8. Dual Palm Button Controls - A common method of actuating hydraulic presses. Both buttons must be depressed at the same time to bring the ram down requiring the operator to use both hands. Control circuits include non-repeat and anti-tie down features.
9. Work Height - The distance from the floor to the top of the bolster.
