Mechanical power presses• OSHA 1910.217 is the vertical
regulation• OSHA 1910.212, general requirement;
1910.219 MPTA• ANSI B11.1 - 1998 for best safety
practices• 350,000 in the U.S.– Full revolution clutch since 1857– Part revolution clutch since 1927

Capacity • 1/4 to bench-top to 5000 lbs.• Smaller one likely to be Gap (C) Frame– If inclinable, OBI, if not incliniable, OBS
• Larger ones tend to be straight side frame– 4 columns from bed (bottom) to crown (top)
• Distinctive features: flywheel, crankshaft, clutch, brake, ram (slide) goes up and down

Full vs. Part Revolution Clutch?• Is an air line going to the
clutch?
• If yes, it’s a part revolution clutch press
• If no, then look for an operating rod coming down the side of machine to identify it as a full revolution clutch
![Page 9: Mechanical Power Press - OSHA](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022021418/586b80fd1a28ab2b068bfcf8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Modes of operation for mechanical power press
• Inch: Short hops of ram used for setup, maintenance, but not for production
• Single stroke: Often hand fed, sometimes with H.I.D. feeding. Safeguarding Devices most common
• Continuous: Makes many cycles without stopping using an automatic feed & coil stock. Sging: Guards most common
![Page 16: Mechanical Power Press - OSHA](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022021418/586b80fd1a28ab2b068bfcf8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Primary operations
• Automatics or blankers• Coil stock with
automatic feeds• Payoff reels or cradles
to unwind• Continuous mode

Types of mechanical power presses (cont’d)
• Functional type• Operating characteristics– Full revolution clutch– Part revolution clutch
• Electric motor is primary drive source• Motor drives press flywheel, which
generates energy that’s applied by way of the crankshaft and ram to the lower dies.
![Page 29: Mechanical Power Press - OSHA](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022021418/586b80fd1a28ab2b068bfcf8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
Full revolution clutch• Uses keys, pins, or jaws to engage
crankshaft to flywheel• Once engaged, clutch drags crankshaft
through one complete revolution before it can be disengaged
• Uses friction brake that is always applied to hold slide stationery when clutch is not engaged
• Will not stop until it has completed one full stroke

![Page 51: Mechanical Power Press - OSHA](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022021418/586b80fd1a28ab2b068bfcf8/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
51
Part revolution clutches (cont’d)
• Foot control– Protected against unintentional operation
• Clutch/brake air valve failure– Control of air-clutch machines will be
designed to prevent significant increase in normal stopping time due to a failure within the operating valve mechanism, and to inhibit further operation if such failure does occur.
![Page 52: Mechanical Power Press - OSHA](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022021418/586b80fd1a28ab2b068bfcf8/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)

deactivate in event of power failure or pressure supply for the clutch engaging means
– Reactivation will require restoration of normal supply and the use of the tripping mechanism
![Page 53: Mechanical Power Press - OSHA](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022021418/586b80fd1a28ab2b068bfcf8/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

![Page 54: Mechanical Power Press - OSHA](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022021418/586b80fd1a28ab2b068bfcf8/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
54
Part revolution clutches - control reliability • When required, control system will be
constructed so that a failure within the system does not prevent the normal stopping action from being applied to the press when required, but does prevent initiation of a successive stroke until the failure is detected
• Failure will be detectable by a simple test, or indicated by the control system
![Page 55: Mechanical Power Press - OSHA](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022021418/586b80fd1a28ab2b068bfcf8/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)

Part revolution clutches - brake monitoring• Be constructed to automatically prevent the
activation of a successive stroke if stopping time or braking distance deteriorates to a point where the safety distance being utilized does not meet the requirements
• Used with the Type “B” gate or movable barrier device, will be installed to detect slide top-stop overrun beyond the normal limit reasonably established by employer

Types of Press brakes• Press brakes are machines that have a
long narrow bed and slide, usually supported by “C” form frames on the ends of the bed and slide – Part revolution clutch - mechanical friction– Part revolution clutch - air– Hydraulic– Hydra-Mechanical

Application of press brakes
• Press brakes are used to perform a variety of operations on sheet, plate, and other metals– The primary application of a press brake
is to bend sheet metal at an angle to form flanges, boxes, channels, etc.
