Design And Development of Compound Die

Abstract

The work deals with the development of a combined tool for an improvement of a process to be done in three wheeler vehicle product manufacturing plant. Research work deals with the combining two pressing operations done separately. This operation done for vehicle cable transmission part to be manufacturing. In the first pressing blanking operation is done & in second operation a hole is pierced in the same product. The project mainly focuses on different operations done on single setup of die punch in a single stroke, presently these operations are done on three separate setups which leading to reduce the production rate and increasing cycle time with cost as well. Compound die is a press tool of collective operations performed on the sheet metal. The various operations are carried out in a single stroke. The design of compound die is largely depends on material of sheet metal, thickness of sheet metal and complexity of design and operations.
