Design and Fabrication Air Powered Pneumatic

punching machine
Abstract:
Punching has a wide usage in the industrial world. Holes need to be punched in
sheets, pipes of a wide variety of materials for assembly purpose. So here we
propose a pneumatic powered punching machine that allows for this with ease.
We propose to develop a compact pneumatic punching machine with enough
torque to demonstrate hole punching through thin metal sheets. The purpose of
this project is to study the punching mechanism and implement it with the help
of pneumatic power. For this purpose we first construct a frame to withstand
and support the punching system. We then assemble the pneumatic piston and
hole support mount into the frame so as to achieve the best punching results.
Now we connect the pipes to the cylinder with necessary valves and use a
electronic control mechanism to control punching using the pneumatic piston.
The system is integrated with motorized rollers needed to feed the metal sheets
into the machine. It consists of a metal detection system that automatically
detects metal sheets and starts punching process and also pushes the sheet out of
other end once done. The electronic system is used to trigger the valves into
releasing necessary amount of air into the piston pushing it in needed direction
with force needed to punch through the material placed on the bed mount.
