1. OPTIMIZATION OF THE WEIGHT OF THE POWER PRESS USING ANSYS & PRO-E BHARATHIYAR COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY KARAIKAL UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF Mr. G.KARTHIKEYAN SENIOR LECTURER DEPT OF MECHANICAL ENGG PRESENTED BY K.MURUGADASS
2. The project focuses on the optimization of the weight of a C Frame Hydraulic Power Press using ANSYS and PRO/E. The need for the project is that with heavy cost cutting going on, on every aspect of production companies, it is essential to reduce the cost of manufacturing a component or a machine by properly calculating the amount of material used to manufacture it. Here in this case, the material weight used to manufacture the frame of the C Frame Hydraulic Power Press is reduced by analyzing the power press by applying load on it virtually with all the boundary conditions in place. Then by calculating the deflection and stress on every part of the power press, the material weight is reduced by reducing the thickness of the frame and the thickness of the bed. Then finally with constant deflection and stress in mind, the weight reduction is stopped. Then the weight before analysis and after analysis is calculated and the difference is observed. Then the cost saved is calculated and the graphs for the observed values are plotted out.

42. In this project the C framed Power Press is studied and the design was done as per the dimensions. The model of the power press is done in PRO/ENGINEER software. The analysis of the power press is carried out using ANSYS package. Finally the modified design is obtained by changing or varying the frame thickness and bed thickness and thus the objective of the study is achieved.
