Hydraulic presses are powerful machines that exert immense pressure.
But can anything survive their crushing force?
Yes, there are several things that can withstand the pressure of a hydraulic press.
Anything with a tensile strength greater than 10k psi and in the right shape, such as a flat sheet or plate, can survive.
Hydraulic presses are commonly used in various industries for different purposes.
5 Surprising Examples of What Can Survive a Hydraulic Press
1. Prototyping Microfluidic Devices
One example is the prototyping of microfluidic devices.
These devices are used in the healthcare industry for tasks like blood testing and drug delivery.
Prototyping microfluidic devices can be challenging due to their small size.
But a hydraulic press can be used to test the blocking resistance of the print material used in these devices.
By applying pressure, the hydraulic press can assess whether the material adheres to itself or not.
2. Testing Physical Limits of Materials
Hydraulic presses are also used in the testing of physical limits for various materials such as ceramics, composites, construction materials, and resins.
Laboratory presses with hydraulic systems provide a compact size while still offering a high clamping force.
They can be used for applications like casting, lamination, or other processes that require high temperature and pressure.
3. Agriculture Industry
Furthermore, hydraulic presses have important uses in industries like agriculture.
They can be utilized for tasks such as pressing oil from seeds or compressing materials for packaging.
4. Construction Materials
In the construction industry, hydraulic presses are used to test the strength and durability of materials.
This ensures that the materials used in building structures can withstand various pressures and forces.
5. Automotive Industry
The automotive industry also benefits from hydraulic presses.
These presses are used to shape and form metal parts, ensuring they meet the required specifications for safety and performance.
